THE HIGH COMMISSIONER.
MR. FOWLDS INTERVIEWED. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland, Yesterday. When interviewed, Mr. Fowlds expressed his opinion that the cable message about the High Commissionership could not be accepted as a definite statement that Sir William Hall-Jones intended retiring from his position. The Minister points out that when the Commissioner's term of office expired at the end of June, Cabinet had no information to go upon, and it was decided to extend his time until the end of August, pending the return of Sir Joseph Ward. The view he took of the position was that the cable man misunderstood the determination of Cabinet and came to the conclusion that August would see the end of Sir William Hall-Jones' term of office.
