fBy Telegraph—
PALMEESTON N., This Day. i Eecently the Prime Minister, Hon. ! M. J. »Savage, issued a statement on the Government 's intentions regarding wool, a subject which was also briefly discussed at last evening's meeting of the Palmerston North ChAmber of Commerce. Beferring "to the Prime Minister 's statement, Mr. K. A. Henderson expressed the wish that Mr. Savage had been a little more definite in his declarations. "As a matter of fact I can't read that there will be no commandeer, into anything that he said and I am afraid there is a very grave danger 1 that the Government will do something 1 of the sort," added Mr. Henderson, i ' ' Mr. Savage does not definitely say no - but gave us some rigmarole that I can't read no into." Mr. M. H. Oram agreed with Mr. Henderson. He recalled that the counti'y had been told by a previous Prime I Minister that there would be no inter- | fercnce with the exchange and yet in ; a matter of weelts, it had been put up. j The president (Mr. A. J. Graham): i The impression I got was that there , would bc no commandeer but one never knows. There might be a change of front any moment.
