CALLED CURIOUS
POLITICAL COMPROMISE IN NEW ZEALAND LONDON JOURNAL’S COMMENT. SOME OVERLAPPING SEEN. (By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) LONDON, July 13. A curious compromise has been reached in New Zealand over the attempt to give the Opposition greater participation in the conduct of the war, says “The Economist. “It is difficult not to feel, it states, “that there will be a certain amount of overlapping between the Labour and National members of the War Administration —between the Minister of Industrial Manpower and the Minister of National Service; the Minister of Defence and the Minister of the Armed Forces and the Wan Co-oidination, the Minister of Finance, when he returns, and the Minister of War Expenditure. “Moreover, it is quite impossible to separate war measures from domestic affairs,” the journal continues. “War economy is indivisible, and the allocation of resources to military and civilian purposes is a single process. “But the fact that the politicians have had to compromise on unity should not cast any reflection on the national unity or New Zealand's determination to wage war both against Japan and Germany to the utmost. The activities of the New Zealand troops in Egypt are evidence enough of that.”
