'TO CO OR NOT TO CO."

■ 'Sir,— During the '■ past fortnight . I have read from; day. to day your very- able editorial comment on the unprecedented political situation which'.has arisen in New Zealand. ■Whatever'the result oCParliamont's informal meeting on Monday, nest may be, The Dominion can. fairly claim to have placed,every phaso of the. question before the people (and their representatives) of this country in a straightforward and rational manner. Your paper, wnile taking a broad view or our national fifo from an Imperial standpoint, has plainly pointed out to Sir Joseph ward his duty to the people Who have placed him in power. If when Parliament meots it comes to a division of members on the Prime Minister's proposal to go to the conference, the electors will do well to keep the division list,and at-the next general election to remembor those who voted to ■ keep important sessional work back-.for several- months. As you have already pointed'put, the Prime Minister at the prtfsent time can, best servo New Zealand from his place on the floor of.the House... These little jaunts to London are not productive'of gobd.rosults.. Sir Joseph Wartldoes not improve by.' contact ; with strawberry leaves.-ram.etc.,' v ' NEMESIs :': June 4. .'.■' '■■; v ' . . v<■ VT
