F.. Gambrill, of Gisborne, referred to the recent suggeston by . students of Victoria College, Wellington, for the abolition of Anzac Day. “We all know these, university . students,” said Colonel Gambrill. “They like to make out they are twenty or thirty years ahead of the community in thought and things and they blow off a tremendous lot of hot air. They eventually coine to earth and become respectable citizens but they have got to keep their hands off Anzac Day.” New Zealand did not have a great deal of tradition beyond the tradition of the British Empire. Anzac Day meant a great deal to all, and, if they must dispense with some day, let them do without something else, but not Anzac Day.
