LAW SOCIETY
ANNUAL CONFERENCE [Per Dkited Press Association.] WELLINGTON, April 3. Mr A. Gray, K.C., presided at the second annual conference of the New Zealand Law Society, which opened today. The official opening was delayed until this afternoon owing to the Limited express from Auckland, with the Governor-General, being an hour and a-half late. The Attorney-General (the Hon. T. K. Sidey) delivered an address on legal education, and expressed the hope that the conference would be even more successful than that held at Christchurch last year. He said that whenever proposals were made regarding the privileges of those who were on, or were to be placed on, the register, especially regarding the qualifications for registration, the cry of close co-opera-tion was almost invariably raised. He considered that objections on that ground could not justifiably be taken where the only test of entrance to the profession was one of ability.
