A NEW PARTY
THE YOUNG PATRIOTS
(Australian Press Association.)
(Received this day at 11.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, Nov. 17.
A movement known as the Young Patriots Association came into being at Lockhart. The objects of the Association are contained in the following resolution which was carried unanimously“ The time lias arrived for vigorous concerted action by the country combined with those of similar mind in the cities, that petty differences should be sunk in order to restore the financial economic stability and figlit extremist doctrines.'’
People from all the surrounding towns attended the meeting, some travelling 150 miles. One speaker said the idea originated anion,?, a handful of Lockhart residents, who were imbued with the idea that the time had arrived when the youth of Australia should talte a hand in finding men ancl women who were prepared to put the country before their party, and who would assist in the endeavour to merge the Nationalist and Country Parties on a basis broad enough to meet the needs of the electors of moderate labour views.
