RETURN OF MR. NASH
MAY DEPART TO-DAY INFORMATION LACKING (Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, this day. “They have not finalised tilings; they are still talking,” was the reply given by the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage, in the House of Representatives to-day, to a question whether the Minister of Finance, the Hon. W. Nash, was actually leaving London on his return to New Zealand to-day. Mr. Savage, however, expressed the opinion that Mr. Nash would be able to start to-day. “But,” he continued “he will not leave until he has finished the job, though I expect he will be on his way to-day. One cannot tell until the thing is done.”
When it was suggested to the Prime Minister that the London reports indicated the Finance Minister’s success in securing financial accommodation, the Prime Minister commented: “I have no information at all what is actually done, and there is no one in a position to say in New Zealand what lias been done.”
