SECOND WAR LOAN.
AVellington, Last Night.
Questioned 10-day ns to the possibility of :i second war loan being tloated in iS'ew Zealand, the Hon. A. Myers remarked that authority would certainly lie asked for that purpose on the meeting of Parliament.
“It is, of course, the obvious responsibility of the Government,” said Mr Myers, “to raise sufficient funds for the financing of our share of war mists which, as is well known, now approximate £1,000,000 per month. The country, despite the withdrawal for military purposes of so many of our best men, is in an unexampled state of prosperity, and I venture to say that the people of the Dominion are onjy awaiting an opportunity of further proving their readiness to meet all demands made upon them in support of the Empire's war against militarism and frightfulness. Such an opportunity will be afforded when the time comes for the Government to ask for subscriptions to the second New Zealand war loan
