EXPOSING COMMUNISTIC ACTIVITIES
(United Press Association) DUNEDIN, June 4. Enthusiastic support for the Returned Soldiers’ Association in its efforts to expose the activities of communistic influences in the Dominion was forthcoming at the annual conference of the Otago provincial council of the Farmers’ Union today. The conference passed a resolution urging the suppression of all subversive activity, the dismissal without superannuation of public servants found participating in such activity, and the cancellation of the naturalization papers of naturalized foreigners discovered taking any part in subversive activity. Before the discussion began an unknown .visitor, who was suspected of being communistically inclined, and who admitted having come to the meeting to hear any arguments against communism, was asked to leave the conference.
