We in New Zealand, it is true, can do little or nothing towards providing big guns and munitions, but we can furnish men, and men of a quality unsu r passed on any field of this tremendous war. In that department our duty lies, and let us see to it that our duty is done.—Rotorua " Chronicle." • • • If the Government persists ii* sending Griesron to the front as an officer, after the revelations made at a recent inquiry, the Government is very unwise. It is pursuing a stupid and obstinate policy in the face of a public opinion that strongly disapproves of what is in contemplation. The women who waited upon Kfr Massed one evening last week have given very fair expression to the popular sentiment. The safety of our soldier sons depends .to some extent upon the care that is taken in the selection of officers.—Wellington. "Times."
