THE SUPPLY DEBATE. A SENSATIONAL STATEMENT. (Received Tuesday, 10.10 a.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. In the Assembly, Mr Bavin stated that he intended to divide the House on a motion of supply unless it could be shown that the electoral rolls could not be ready within a month. The Chief Secretary (Mr Lazzarini) intimated that it would be impossible to have the rolls ready before March. If an election was held before then they would have to lie under proportional representation, with the 1924 rolls.
