The Main Issue Telegraphing from Christchurch yesterday a correspondent states notwithstanding the eleventh-hour entry of the Rt. Hon. J. G. Coates into the Lyttelton campaign on behalf of the Coalition nominee, indications point to a win for Mrs McCombes. 3he main issue of the election is confidence or lack of confidence in the present Administration. It is evident that Mrs McCombs will poll a strong feminist vote and as well receive a measure of support due to sympathy. The- actual effect of Mr Coates’ speeches is difficult to determine, although it is considered likely in some quarters that he has hardened up some Coalition support. The swing against the Government appeared to be so strong before he arrived that the opinion is strongly held that he could not reverse it. Mr Hills, the Independent Labour nominee, is no longer a factor, and his total w ; U be neligible. Nothing is ever certain in politics, sound judges today are prepared to predict a good majority for Mis McCombs.’’ The issue will not be long in doubt and today will show whether it is pn-Mhle to forecast such a result with any degree of certainty.
