Gordon Edwards, at Pokeno, on Friday evening, to make arrangements for the conference of delegates. The secretary of the Auckland executive of the Labour Parly stated yesterday I hat if the party decided to contest the seat Air C. R. Petrie, who was the Labour candidate at the 1928 election, will be the nominee. The local executive of the United Partv organisation is awaiting word from Wellington. At the 1928 election, Mr E.
