Lack Of Interest In-Non-Party Politics Deplored
' “After issuing a non Party pamphlet and receiving a considerable .amount of encouragement from the public I advertised a meeting in the King Street Hall, with the intention of delivering an address on the subject of Non-Party., politics,” said Mr V/. Bradshaw to the Beacon yesterday. “The result was practically an empty hall, “Taking into consideration the state of the minds of the people, which amounts to suspicion of my good intentions, as electioneering, propaganda, the timing was not ripe. Nothing daunted I propose to ■carry on to prepare for the crash that is looming ahead of us, and Party politics will not save the people from disaster but the power of the electors cart demand that there will be no poverty in a land of plenty and get it. “This is an assurance that can not be got from either side of the house under party politics) Neither can we help the mother country which is . under the same scourge of the party. As the Maori says: Taihoa, wait a bit. You have got your warning.”
