LAND. SALES BILL
POSTPONEMENT TILL AFTER ' ELECTION. SUGGESTED BY MARLBOROUGH LANDOWNERS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) BLENHEIM, This Day. A resolution, urging deferment of the Land Sales Bill until after the election was carried unanimously at a representative meeting of landowners last night. Failing postponement of the measures, the meeting recommended various amendments, including deletion of the contentious Part 3, dealing with the methods of controlling the inflation of land values and the prevention of land aggregation. The meeting was in harmony with the policy of providing land for ex-service men, but decided to urge the Government to include in its definition of service men those detained by the manpower authorities and appeal boards in essential industries, including farming. It was further advocated that a Supreme Court judge preside over the Land Purchase Court, a claimant to be entitled to nominate one assessor and the Government one.
