THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
PROTEST BY R.S.A. M ELLINGTON, June 22. With regard to the question of immigration, which was discussed at the Dominion Council of the Returned Soldiers’ Association, a cable has been forwarded to the Prime Minister in England stating that the conference is strongly against the immigration of any Asiatic races, and urging him to resist, at the Imperial Conference, any attempt to open the door to them. General Sir Andrew Russell received a telegram from Mr .Massey, stating ’’Telegram received. In my opinion no attempt should be made to open the door. The New Zealand policy is embodied in the Immigration Act. 1920.”
