MR FORBES VISITS MANCHESTER CITY.
“NEW ZEALANDERS STAND BY THEIR OWN PEOPLE.” (United Press Assn.—By Electrio Telegraph.—Copyright.) (Received November 27, 11.55 a.m.) LONDON, November 26. Mr G. W. Forbes and party are visiting Manchester under the auspices of the British Empire League. They were welcomed by the Lord Mayor, and were given luncheon by the Ship Canal Company, and a private dinner by the Lord Mayor, after which there was a public reception. Mr Forbes, speaking at the luncheon, said that New Zealanders were convinced of the wisdom of standing by their own people and the Motherland, and insisting that their exports should be of the highest quality. They enforced Government approval of everything leaving the country. Similarly they gave British manufacturers such substantial preference that New Zealand was the highest per capita buyer of British goods. Their policy of concentrating to the utmost on trade among the British family would be continued. The party inspected the Ship Canal and Vickers’s electrical works.
