GENERAL FREYBERG
SUGGESTED APPOINTMENT \AS GOVERNOR-GENERAL.
(By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day
“It would be a fine tribute to the New Zealand Division if, after the war, Lieutenant-General Sir Bernard Freyberg, officer commanding it, were appointed Governor-General of New Zealand,” said Mr Macfarlane, Government member for Christchurch South and a returned soldier of this war, in the House of Representatives yesterday. General Freyberg was eminently suited for that honour, Mr Macfarlane observed. There had frequently been talk of having a New Zealander appointed as Governor-General, and he considered his suggestion would be a most' fitting first appointment.
