THE NEW CENSORSHIP.
REPLY TO LABOR M.P.’s PROTEST. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, June 20. A telegram from Christchurch was published on Saturday stating that three Labor M.P.’s had sent a telegram, which was quoted to the acting-Prime Minister, protesting against the censorship of news sent beyond the Dominion and against the Government “usurping the law-making functions of Parliament.” Sir Francis Bell to-day stated he had not received a telegram, but a letter to the effect quoted had just reached him. He expressed his satisfaction with the emphatic insistence by the three members upon obedience to the law and his concurrence with their own view that all organisations, including the Government, should regard it as their duty to comply strictly with the provisions of the law as found in the Statute Book.
