UNITEDS’ ORGANISER
MR. MOLLER’S RESIGNATION REPORTED DIFFICULTIES IN THE PARTY Special to THE SUN WELLINGTON, Today. The turbulent nature of the domestic affairs of the United Party is indicated by a further report that the Dominion Organiser, Mr. O. Moller, has severed his connection with the organisation. This report Mr. Moller will neither affirm nor deny. It is understood on good authority that the conference of organisation representatives and United members of Parliament, which met on Friday, altered the scheme of organisation as approved by the Dominion executive to a smaller and more economical scheme. The nature of this scheme and its objects are still matters of the closest secrecy, but at the moment it is apparent that all organising work for the Government is at a standstill. “I have nothing to say,” said Mr. Moller, now chief executive officer of the organisation, when approached and asked if he could give any information as to the position of the organisation since the resignation of the general secretary. Further conferences between the executive and the Cabinet are expected, and it is reported that until the basis of a new scheme is laid there will be no Dominion conference of the United Party, an event for which there has been constant request. One report states that the Party is afraid to hold a full-dress conference of the organisation, whirl) was the creation of Air. A. E. Davy, late chairman of the executive of the Party, anticipating that Air. Davy’s recent utterances may meet with embarrassing support. Consequently, the conference has been postponed until such time as the Davy machine has been overhauled and altered. The silence of a large number of electorate executives may provide the basis of this belief. Added piquancy is given to the situation by the authentic report that a fourth member of the Party, Air. G. C. Black,, member for Motueka, left the conference in the afternoon and did not return for the evening session.
