BRITAIN'S NAVY AND ARMY.

By Telegraph-Press Association.

mi n . , L „ Fei 'tling. April 17. Tho Right Hon. W. F. Massey gave a recruiting speech in the open air tonight. Despsto the l-ain, a large crowd attended and gave the Prime Minister a good hearing. There was frequent applause during the speech, which ended with hearty cheering. The Primo Minister referred to .Britain's mistakes in giving up Heligoland, and allon-ing berman spy-waiters, and governesses to overrun Britain, but this, lie said would never hnppon acain. New Zealand stood for an outright win with tho filial terms dictated by the Allies in Berlin. Zealand, Mr. Massey said, wanted Gallipoli Peninsula sot ' apart for all time as a sacred ground. Speaking as one knowing something, ho could say that Britain's Nav.v and Army was stronger than ever, and readv to'go in and win ■ when tho order came. Sir. Massey acknowledged that Feilding had moiio than done its duty, and wished ho could say the same of other districts. They must have men, mid ho urged all oligibles to enlist. He believed the time had eome when Britain could no longer depend on the voluntary system. It was a. ctso now of "wonts" and "sents." There was an everlasting disgrace for shirkers.
