A persistent interjector at Mr. Mazengarb's meeting in Koro Koro last night found common ground with the candidate on several occasions and towards, the , close ■of the meeting expressed himself - quite favourably. "I like, your politics,'.' he said, "you're really a Liberal-bLabour man, and you're honest. Why don't you stand as. an Independent?"
Mr. Mazengarb, after thanking the questioner for the compliment, explained that in politics today one was almost driven into one or other of the two camps, however much he might dislike party politics. He personally could not be in the Labour camp because he was so hostile to Socialism and currency inflation, and the National Party offered plenty of scope for men of independent views.
