CALLED A CAPER
MR JULL ON TOWN-PLANNING
POSTPONEMENT URGED UNTIL AFTER WAR.
IBy Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON. This Day.
“The public does not want this townplanning stunt, and the sooner the Minister of Internal Affairs wakes up to that the better.” declared Mr Jull (Opposition. Waipawa) during the debate on the Statutes Amendment Bill. He suggested that the least the Government could do was to drop townplanning till after the war. “If ever a man lived away up in the stratosphere it is the town-planner.” said Mr Jull. "He never gets down to earth.”
The Minister of Internal Affairs. Mr Parry: "He is an exceedingly good man."
“Let us drop this town-planning caper." said Mr Jull. "Leave it till the war is over, and see what kind of town-planning we have to do then."
