WELLINGTON, February 25. The Newspaper Proprietors' Association passed the following resolution: —"At' this crisis in the affairs of the nation, the united press of New Zealand wishes to record its deep thankfulness at the splendid courage which has been manifested by all branches of the defence forces of the Empire in the great conflicts which have taken place with a powerful enemy since the commencement of the war. Their courage and endurance have been 'an unflagging manifestation of the deep patriotic spirit with which they are imbued, and it is in a similar frame of mjnd that the newspaper press of the dominion, now assembled in annual conference, desires that a message be transmitted to his Majesty the King, through the Governor-general, expressive of its unswerving loyalty to the Crown and its earnest prayer for the speedy triumph of his Majesty's forces and their brave allies, and for a lasting neace founded on the principles of righteousness and justice and the liberty of the world."
