Commenting on tli© iPrime Minister’s recommendation that he should “go home” h© said he would do so when told to do so hy his constituents.- He was willing to submit himself to the electors and was satisfied he would be returned by an overwhelming majority. These and subsequent remarks were received with applause. He did not say. the Government had abused the power of its large majority, but it was a danger. He said the committee set up to report on the motor bus regulations was so composed that it was never doubted it would report in favour of the regulations. He alleged the Takapuna Tram and Ferry Company had a pull with the Government and was persuaded it would grant them a monopoly of the traffic. He was pledged to vote for the Government on a noconfidence, motion, but if legislation was brought down he did not think right he would vote against it. The meeting passed a resolution re-affirm-ing its unbounded confidence in Mr Harris as member for Waitemata and ©expressed entire approval and en dorsement of his action.
