DRIVE BY NATIONAL PARTY
PREPARATION TO FIGHT AN ELECTION (United Press Association) WELLINGTON, November 28. The official report of the meeting of the National Party held in Wellington last week states that, far from slackening the National Party drive is becoming more pronounced. The president, Mr C. H. Weston, K.C., in his address, after referring to the necessity, which was admitted by the Government, that expenditure must be reduced, said: “I suppose the danger to New Zealand is that rather than face a reduction in the standard of living they will resort to drastic changes in the economic system.” Members of the council emphasized the necessity for the National Party to be organized and prepared to fight an election at short notice and arrangements were made to carry this into effect .
