When the ardent wishes of the agents of Mosco and their dupes in this Dominion were realized and the country became properly Sovietised, he believed Mr. Scrimgeour would be come the Commissar of Broadcasting.—Hon. C. J. Carrington. M.L.C., 18/11/37.

Veitch, Nationalist candidate for Wanganui, addressing junior members of the Savage Club to-night, he did not intend to make an emotional appeal to the audience.

Replying to a request for the policy of the National Party, Mr. Veitch said that as yet the party had no definite policy, although its aims had been stressed on many occasions. Three would be a policy later, however, although it would not be very detailed, because details were not necessary.—26/5/38.

The National Party is true to name and doesn't belong to any one section of the community. We stand even for the working people. (Laughter.) — Hon. A. Hamilton, 3/8/37.
