STATEMENTS AT GENEVA
CRITICISM OF THE HIGH COMMISSIONER. PRIME MINISTER’S REPLY. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Statements'made at meeting of the League of Nations at Geneva by New Zealand’s High Commissioner, Mr W. J. Jordan, were the subject of com-, ment by Opposition members in the House of Representatives when discussing the estimates for the Prime Minister’s Department. Replying to criticisms that Mr Jordan should not advance views at League meetings that were at variance with those of the rest of the British Commonwealth, the Prime Minister, the Rt Hon M. J. Savage, said Mr Jordan received his instructions from the Government and had carried them out well. There was no question of importance discussed at Geneva that New Zealand did not know about from the British Government itself. The vote for the Prime Minister’s Department was passed.
