PARTY FUSION QUESTION.
LIBERAL LEADER'S DENIAL
INVERCARGILL, This Day. Speaking at Bluff, Sir J. G. Ward, in reply to Mr Massey, said he had never been consulted on the question of fusion, and knew nothing except from press reports of the Reform caucus. He deprecated the other party's • effort s to make out that he was responsible for continuance of the party system. He did not say that fusion would be either good or bad but he was never consulted. Sir Joseph also said that experts' report on war services entailed too great an expenditure. He himself was for spending £100,000 yearly on an air force* for commercial and defence purposes.—Press Assn.
