OBJECTION BY COUNCIL OF CHRISTIAN CONGREGATIONS
(By Telegraph—Press Association)
AUCKLAND, 24th November
Objection to the nude figures in the H. E. Holland memorial has been made by the executive committee of the Auckland Council of Christian Congregations. The national executive of the New Zealand Labour Party, which commissioned the work, has decided to take no action regarding the protest. “All I need say at this stage is that not one member of the Council of Christian Congregations lias seen the memorial, which is still in my studio,” said the sculptor, Mr R. O. Gross, when asked to comment on the Council’s attitude.
