That Man Again
That Man Again
Not content with the rebuff received by his attack on WFDY at the Annual Meeting, Mr. V. Henderson once again launched a frontal attack on that organisation.
"Um—er—Mr. Chairman," he began. (Pause.) "In Budapest in Auckland. I mean August . . ." He continued with an attack on VUC delegates to the WFDY festival at above time and place—to wit Ron Smith. Jim Hollyman, and Stew Scoones.
"I know these jokers." he said, "and their views wouldn't represent one-tenth of the members of this Association." Accordingly he moved that "This meeting frame a policy for our delegates at the WFDY festival." Mr. J. Hogg seconded.
Mr. Piper agreed to the motion, but asked if anyone had any concrete suggestion. Mr. Connor abused the festival as a "Communist Youth Rally". Mr. Evlson said there was no intention to foist the views of individuals on the Association, and Mr. Goddard moved an amendment, "That the policy be (1) support for the alms of WFDY, and (2) all previous official expressions or this Association's opinion." The amendment and motion were then carried.
