IRONICAL APPLAUSE FOR MR. COATES
ANZAC DAY SPEECH CHRISTCHURCH INCIDENT Press Association CHRISTCHURCH, To-day. The Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. J. G. Coates, was subjected to some slight interruption towards the end of his Anzac Day address at King Edward Barracks yesterday. From the direction of a gathering of territorials and cadets came long sustained applause, not evoked entirely by the substance of Mr. Coates’s remarks. The Prime Minister was listened to very attentively until near the end of his address. Up till that time there had been no applause whatever which made the suddent burst of “appreciation” all the more remarkable. It will be remembered that during his Anzac Day address at the barracks last year the Hon. L. M. Isitt was subjected to some interruption.
