SINGAPORE BASE
NEW ZEALAND’S POLICY UNCHANGED IMPERIAL CONFERENCE Press Association ROTORUA, Wednesday. “I have noticed that frequent references have recently been appearing in the newspapers regarding the Singapore naval base,” said the Prime Minister, Sir Joseph Ward, in a statement this evening. “I desire to state that as far as the New Zealand Government is concerned its views on the subject are well known and have been irublicly stated both in and out of Parliament. Moreover, his Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom is fully cognisant of these views. “I need hardly say that these opinions remain unchanged, and we hope that no decision affecting the construction of the work at Singapore will be made until the matter has been fully considered at the forthcoming Imperial Conference in London.”
