SALE OF “WHITE HOUSE”
CRITICISM IN PARLIAMENT 1 (Special to THE S LX) \ WELLINGTON, Today. “Almost an act of vandalism” Is how Mr. H. Jones (Alid-Canterbury> termed i the announced intention of the Governi , ment to subdivide the property in Tina- ! kori Road, Wellington, which includes the house occupied In the past by the Prime Alinisters of New Zealand. “The turning of the Dominion’s ‘White House’ into offices was the first mistake.” said Air. Jones. “I would i I rather the building were made a gift to the citizens of Wellington than ‘ j thrown on the open market for the , i sake of getting a few pounds. I sug- ; gest the House be given the opportuni ity of expressing its opinion on the j question.”
