STATEMENTS EXAGGERATED
MR. POLSON’S LAND FIGURES Press Association STRATFORD, To-day. Speaking at Whangamomona, Mr. W. J. Poison said: “The Hon. A. D. McLeod still continues to misrepresent my land settlement figures. Following Reform’s usual methods, he asserts I declared that 1,000,000 acres a year were going back to fern and second growth. “Reports in local papers show clearly that what I said was that in spite of the stepping down of classification by the Government Year Book, figures for the last five years show beyond doubt that 100,000 acres a year are going back, not 1,000,000 acres.”
