DANGER OF WAR
MR FRASER EXPLAINS By Telegraph—Pres.® Association AUCKLAND, June 30. A further reference to his remarks regarding the possible danger of an outbreak of war was made by the Acting Prime Minister, the Hon. P. Fraser, in a statement issued this evening. “My remarks in regard to the danger of a rupture in international relationships carrying with it the danger of a possible outbreak of war were based exclusively on published cable news,” Mr Fraser said. “They were part of a brief resume of world affairs in which I emphasised the menace of war due to the overthrow of democratic principles in various countries, the weakening of the power and effectiveness of co-operation through the League of Nations and the consequent loss of good will among nations. They were no more than a personal opinion based upon my own interpretation of the world position, and had no other significance. Published apart from their context, they may have effected a different impression.”
