OPINIONS OF BUSINESS MEN.
By Telegraph.—Press Association.
Wellington, Last Night. Commenting on the present investigation by the Minister of Internal Affairs (the Hon. Adam Hamilton) of local government, members of the executive of the Associated Chambers oi Commerce to-day expressed the opinion that any experimental system that was dependent on voluntary co-operation by the local bodies was foredoomed to failure. Proper local government reform demanded an independent investigation by a commission and the reinforcement of its. recommendations by compulsory legislation. A commission, if appointed now, could investigate the position in the recess and report to the next session ot Parliament.
