PULL YOUR WEIGHT AGAINST COMMUNISM.

WELLINGTON, April 7. j ' 'Every loyal New Zealander can pull his or her weight towards' count- t ering in a practical way, the moves \ of Communists, said Mr. Gordon D. | Stewart, president of the Wellington j Chamher of Commerce, in his presi £ dential address at the annual meeting j of the Chaimber. \- 4 ' The person who says this is no t affair of mine is either a coward or a fool. We can all give support to ) those organisations which uphold the s British way of life and we can make £ sure that they do not come under the control of Communists," he said. i 4 ' By collectively, making these or- ; ganisations strong and effective by offering to serve on such organisa- . : tions wherever possihle, hy counter- ' 1 ing disloyal or subversive eleiments in 1 our midst, we can help to' preserve i the British way of life. Everybody i can help. We are fighting against 1 apathy today. Although the greater hulk of the population is opposed toComniunisxh, many people are not pre- 1 pared to do anything about it. There 1 is strength in numbers to combat this 1 menace." ;
