THANKS TO THE PEOPLE
PRIME MINISTER’S NEW YEAR MESSAGE HOPES SOON TO TRAVEL Press Association WELLINGTON, Thursday. "I am glad to say I am well on the road to complete recovery, and I hope to be able to travel New Zealand soon shake the hands of my many friends,” said the Prime Minister, Sir Joseph Ward, this evening, in the course of a New Year’s message broadcast from his Heretaunga residence by station 2YA, Wellington. “I want to thank the people of New Zealand for their sympathy and kindness to me during my illness,” added Sir Joseph. “Inquiries have been made from all parts of New Zealand, and from friends in all political parties, so that I, as Prime Minister, do not consider I represent one party, but that I represent the people of New Zealand as a whole. “I am pleased to say that the finances of the Dominion have kept up well. It fills one with hope that at the end of the year we will have a credit balance, irrespective of the unusual and heavy expenditure that has occurred on account of earthquake and unemployment, both of which have been assisted largely from loan moneys.”
