Extract: from Sir Thomas Mackenzie's speech ftt a patriotic rally at tho Town Hall, Leeds, July 10-.-

"ICtw Zealand hml sent 110.000 soldiers nut of a million inhabitants, but ho confessed the strain on the man-power and resources of the Dominion was now beginning to tell. Now Zealand, however, could supnly a superabundance of foodBluffs and'raw material, while America— thank God for America—had men in plenty willing to go. It was sound policy to accent men from America and foodstuffs from Now Zealand." . I (By Telegraph"—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Monday, 15-7-18. Reference to the published report of some remarks by the High Commissioner in London to tlie effect that the .Nonunion's man-power was diminishing, and hinting at the possibility of tho Americans taking the place of the New Zeawas. made by Sir James Allen to-night. The Dominion, he said, had entered the campaign with the intention of seeing it t.hromrh, and ho believed the people of New Zealand were still determined to do so. Ho believed the men at the front wished to tight the matter out, and intended playing their part to the end. There was a gveat strain upon New Zealand's mau-wwir and -resources, but, like our Allies, we were prepared to meet those strains and to do and give nil we could in this fight for freedom. We were glad to see the Americans coming in, and we. hoped that they would come in such numbers that victory would bo certain. So far as he wan concerned ho considered himself pledged absolutely to keep the-Nov Zealand Division up to strength as long as ho had man-power to do it.
