MEETING OF PROTEST. [Per Press Association.] DARGAVTLLE, Juno 27. A meeting of the Kaipara Chamber of Commerce, presided over by Mr A. E. Harding, ex-M.P., asked the Government. to submit tho proposals in regaru to tho removal of unnaturalised single alien gumdiggers to the Parengaxenga district, to tho chamber before enforcement. Mr Harding, in an interview, said that tlio Government had been hoodwinked by gum-sharks, and the whole business had been worked by a wealthy absentee syndicate.. The interning of Austrians would'decrease the product of the gumfields by two-thirds, and agitators for internment little knew the disastrous effects it would have on many country settlements.
