No Mood For Party Politics, Says Holland
[Per Press Association. —Copyright] WELLINGTON, This Day
“The public today is in no mood for party politics: the only thing that matters now is the prosecution of the war to a successful conclusion,” said Mr. S. G. Holland, in an address to the Dominion Conference of the National Party. If the National Party were elected, said Mr. Holland, it would set about the formation of a national r.on-party Government, dropping party politics, and would get on with the war. Seeing that the Government of the day had rejected all offers for the formation of a non-party Government, and was itself proceeding apace with preparations for a general election, the National Party was obliged to make similar preparations. A suggestion that Mr. Holland might well pay a visit to the New Zealand troops overseas met with the approval of the conference, and it was decided that the possibility would be investigated.
