INTERESTING INCIDENT
PRESENTATION TO IE MINISTER. A very pleasant incident occurred at Mr John Coull’s election committee rooms yesterday afternoon when the Prime Minister was having a cup of tea. Mr Rangi Marumaru took the opportunity to thank Mr Coates for his efforts in connection with the Native Claims Commission, and, on behalf of the Wanganui Maori Soldiers’ Memorial Committee, thanked the Government for the assistance it had given. Mr Marumaru, on behalf of his wife, then presented to Mr Coates a valuable taiaha. Mrs Marumaru was bom in the same district in the far north as Mr Coates claims for his birthplace.
