CARS FROM AMERICA.
PURCHASES BY DOMINION. PROTEST FROM SIR JAMES PARR. Bj Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. "Why should thousands of pound® go from New Zealand to foreign countries for motor-cars "t” asked Sir James Parr in a speech this afternoon. Was the Britieh workman unable to meet our demands and requirements? That could not be the case. The trouble was one that could be rectified. He had no ill-feeling against America, who sent us so many cars. What he said was in the interests of our beloved Empire. The Americans ■would not have our goods, they erected tariff walla against our produce, and thought we were very foolish if we did not see about getting our goods from within the Empire. The matter was very largely in our own hands, added £tir James.
