INTENTIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT

WILL MEET WISHES OP LOCAL : ... BODIES • The question of when the New Zealand .Peace celebrations aro to, be held was brought' before the Acting-Prime Minister again yesterday. . .

All that tho 'Government had dono was to: off or suggestions by way of advice to the local authorities, and if these suggestions were, not'acceptable for any reason .they could ha .varied. In the meantime it might b° > that tho Government would get information .from-the. Imperial .authorities as to ' '-their wishes the celebrations, which •would justify. New Zealand in falling ■into lino with the other parts of the Empire. ■ The' Government had had to come to. a'decision quickly because it appeared' that there was : a possibility of jieacD being concluded soon, and of New Zealand being caught without any'preparations being made.' .The Minister of Public' Works was 'making arrangements for displays being made on public buildings, and the postmasters in the different centres would attend-to .the shows from post offices.
