ADVISORY POWERS MINISTER’S GUARDED STATEMENT. (Per United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, March 22. The Wellington Education Board recently suggested to the Minister (Mr R.

A reply was read at to-day’s meeting which stated that the Minister, although always prepared to give careful consideration to the advice ot boards on matters affecting the welfare of primary education, regretted that he was unable to give a definite assurance that the board’s request would be acceded to on each and every occasion when changes were contemplated. “ It is time he abolished the boards if that is the only reply be can give,” was a member’s remark.
