WANT UNITEDS OUSTED
SAMOAN ADMINISTRATION CRITICISED QUAY STREET MEETING Describing the Government’s administration in Samoa as shocking, the Samoa Defence League has .forwarded a resolution to Mr. H. E. Holland urging that the United Party should be turned out of office. An indignation meeting, held under the auspices of the Samoa Defence League was attended by more than 1,000 people in Quay Street on Saturday evening. The following resolution was carried unanimously; “That this audience, while approving the action of the Labour Party in all no-confidence motions moved during the last session of Parliament, considers the action of the Ward Government in Samoan administration to be so shocking that the Labour Party would be quite justified turning it out; no matter what Government takes its place.”
The meeting was addressed by the chairman, Mr. E. Stevenson, Mr. F. W. Schramm, and Mr. McFarland. The league has also cabled to the League of Nations and to the British for the Colonies, asking that New Zealand’s mandate be taken over by the Colonial Office.
