ENEMY ALIENS.
STRONGER ACTION URGED. / Per Press Association. HASTINGS, March 12. Strong indignation at what was described as the Government’s action in permitting a number of enemy aliens to remain at large was voiced at the annual reunion of the Hastings R.S.A. and the following resolution was carried: This meeting views with great regret the fact that the R.S.A. has not taken a- sufficiently strong line of action with regard to the internment of aliens, and wishes /to inform headquarters that unless some more satisfactory attitude/ is adopted the local association- will with regret have to consider the question of taking local action.
Asked what he meant by local action, the mover of the resolution (Colonel H. Holderness) said: “Picketing. Every soldier knows what that means.”
