NAVAL DEFENCE
PRIME MINISTER TO REPLY TO MR. HOLLAND.
Dargaville, May 16.
“You will no doubt have seen in the Press,” said the Right Hon. J. G. Coates to-night, “the proposals which the Government intend to submit to Parliament early next session regarding naval defence policy, which includes a definite contribution by the Dominion, spread over a period of years, towards the cost of the naval base of Singapore. The proposals evoked adverse criticism from the Leader of the Opposition, but time will not permit of my dealing with the matter here. I intend, therefore, to issue a public statement replying to Mr Holland’s remarks under this head, and you will have an opportunity of perusing my rejoinder when published in the papers in a day or two.”
