MODERATE SOCIALISTS.
NEW INTERNATIONAL GROUP PROPOSED.
I IN THE PACIFIC AREA.
ACTION BY LORD SNELL AND MR. W. NASH.
(Received Friday, 8.15 p.m.) BANFF, August 24. At the Institute of Pacific Relations steps were taken on Thursday to organise a new international group of Socialists in countries having interests in the Pacific area. The initiative of forming the new group was taken by Lord Snell, a member of the British group at-
tending the conference, in association with Mr. Walter Nash, M.P.,
leader of the New Zealand group. Mr. Nash explained that an effort would be made to interest the leading Socialists of every country having contacts with the Pacific area, with a view to exchanging information. He said valuable work could be done for humanity through such an interchange, and labour organisations and the world would benefit.
Whether a more formal organisation would be effected later, Mr. Nash, observed, he could not say, although an effort would be made in that direction. Mr. Nash also indicated that the new group would vigorously oppose Bolshevism Communism and the more rabid forms of modern Socialism. It is defined as a sane, moderate, constructive Socialist movement.
