STAYING AT HOME
SIR JAMES PARR NOT LEAVING ENGLAND HAS NEW POST (United P.A.—Bp Telegraph — Copyright) Reed. Noon. LONDON, Wednesday. Sir James Parr, in the course of a statement, said he had intended, in a few days, to embark on a rush visit to New Zealand, where he would spend a fortnight seeing his friends. Unfortunately his associates in the Empire Trade movement were most anxious for him to begin his new mission in March, so he must, therefore, delay his return to New Zealand until the end of 1930. The promoters of the movement had asked him to be one of the chief spokesmen and organisers, and there were also secretarial duties which would include considerable speechmaking in the provinces. He had accepted the appointment largely because he felt he could at present do better -work in Britain for New Zealand and her industries than he could there. When he returned to New- Zealand he hoped to engage in some useful service for the country. His friends are wondering whether his new activities will lead to his entrance into British politics.
