POLITICAL MEETINGS.
PREMIER’S VIEWS. (Bv Telegraph.—Special to Standard.) AVELLINGTON, March 21. . “People who interrupt at public meetings are not helping us,” declared the Prime Minister, when Mr S. G. Holland’s complaint regarding disorder at Opposition meetings was mentioned. “I was surprised to see Mr Holland was complaining about the lack of police assistance at his meetings,” added Mr Savage. “1 have been in public life for 31 years in New Zea.land and have never yet had to appeal.to Ministers of the Crown against the people of this country. AA’hether they agreed with my politics or not they were always courteous. I tried to lead the way and the people always responded. I have never reaped where I have not sown. It appears to be another effort to try to discredit the Government. The Opposition seems to be bankrupt of worthwhile ideas.” An earlier message is on page 2.
