IN PARLIAMENT.
THE FINANCE DEBATE. CHEERY EXPECTATIONS. (“The Age” Special.) PARLIAMENT HOUSE, July 27.— It is expected that the financial debate, which is to open on Tuesday night, will produce a more lively discussion than was the case with tho Address-in-Reply. Tho Nationalists are now anxious to place their views before Parliament and the country, and a good deal more will be heard of the fusion negotiations. A resentful feeling exists among Nationalist members over the suggestion made by the Prime Minister at Palmerston North that when there appeared to be no certainty of a distribution of. portfolios under amalgamation the desire for fusion disappeared. This aspect will be debated in a trenchant fashion, which should let the public into some further features of the long negotiations conducted in private. Pensions Appeal Board. The Chairman of the War Pensions Appeal Board (Mr S. G. Raymond, K.C.) recently resigned, and Cabinet has appointed Mr Justice Hosking, who is at present engaged in special work of the Supreme Court associated with applications for the extension of the moratorium. Mr Justice Hosking will be able to undertake some pen sions appeal work in districts which he has to visit to hear moratorium applications. A fairly large number of appeals await attention.
