Shadow of War.
“It is regrettable that we open this campaign under the shadow of war,’’ said Mr. J. A. Lee, Parliamentary Under-Secretary in Charge of Housing, in an address at Grey Lynn, reports the New Zealand Herald. He said it seemed a tragedy when one’s mind went back to the days of 1914-18, when millions of men swept across the battlefields of Europe, and millions of
women and children knew the sufferings of war. It was unfortunate that men’s minds were so short. “I feel sure that this is-in our minds.” he added, “that everything we can do to effect a peaceful solution, everything we can do to achieve a just settlement of international disputes, everything except give way to cowardice, will be done to reach a desirable end.”
