(By l'elegraph-
GREYMOUTH, Feb! 8. The opinion that the Labour Government would have to set up an editorial board of three to write the history of the provinces of New Zealand, which teemed with exaniples of huinan effort, was expressed ,by Mr. J. A. Lee, Parliamentary under-secretary to tho Prime Minister, at Runanga. , The time had now arrived, said Mr Lee, and it would be a pity to dolay it much longer. In Westland,'skhere were still some of those who could romember the early days. The Government would have to «?- tablish a , board and pey* the members of it well, he continued. It would be a big job, but they would have to have a recora of the men and women wlio pioneered the country. He did not know of any worthier effort. Tjiey had to have that cultural something as well as that materialistic something.
