ANOMALOUS POSITION.
MR POLBON'B DUAL ROLE. FARMERS’ UNION COMMENT. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) DANNEVIRKE, Friday. A question cropped up at a meeting of the Hawke’s Bay Dairy Companies’ Association as to the capacity in which Mr W. J. Poison, M.P., would address a meeting under the auspices of the Farmers’ Union to be held here next week, whether as president of the Union or as member for Stratford. The chairman, Mr B. Gundersen, said he did not know and it might be difficult for Mr Poison himself to state. Mr J. G. Doyle stressed that the Farmers’ Union was a non-political body. If a man was going to make political capital out of a non-political body it was bordering on the absurd. The chairman said Mr Poison might confine his remarks to the president’s viewpoint and It was to be hoped he would do so.
