LAST NIGHT'S SITTING.
The House resumed &t 7.30. Mr Sutton resumed the debate on the Land Bill. Mr J. W. Thomson said if the deferred payment system had failed it was owing to the auction system. He did not approve of the leasing proposals, as there were too many restrictions, and too much uncertainty of tenure. He advocated the disposal of pastoral lands in small areas. Mr Moss expressed disapproval of the bill. Mr Ivess spoke at considerable length in adverse criticism of the provisions, which were quite uncalled for. He advocated a system of village settlement, and extension of the Southland system of deferred payment, ballot being substituted for auction. The bill was unsuitable and unworkable. (Left Sitting.)
