OFFICIAL LABOUR PARTY

ADDRESS BY MR HOLLAND. (Per United Press Association.) WESTPORT, November 20. Mr H. E. Holland, M.P., Labour candidate for Duller electorate, addressed a large meeting in the Theatre Royal tonight, and gave an exhaustive review of the Labour Party’s work during the recent session of Parliament. He strongly contendedthat the Liberal and Tory were one, and that a deep chasm separated both from the Labour Party. When asked how the Labour Party would vote on a no-confidenee motion, Mr Holland said he hoped the Labour Party would come back from the elections as the constitutional opposition, but if it did not, and Sir Joseph Ward moved a vote of no-confidence, the Labour Party would join with Mm in ousting Mr Massey, but it would not support Sir Joseph Ward unless ho then enacted the legislation the Labour Party was fighting for. A vote of thanks and confidence was carried with cheers.
