RETURNED SOLDIERS' ASSOCIATION.
NOT A POLITICAL BODY. « By Telegraph—Press ABBociatson. Wellington, Last Night. As a sequel to the Wellington North by-election, an extraordinary general meeting of the Wellington Returned Soldiers' Association was held to-night, when the following resolution was adopted unanimously: "That this meeting endorses the action of the committee in taking up a neutral attitude in the re- ' cent political contest, thus, acting according to the constitution of the New Zealand Soldiers' Association. Furthermore, this meeting disapproves most emphatically of the action of any political candidate who may be inclined to exploit either the name of the Beturned Soldiers' Association or the returned soldiers, for political advantage." The meeting solidly supported the mov er's argument that if the association allowed itself to be dragged into the vortex of party politics, the organisation; would be dismembered.
