NEW ZEALAND FIRST.
RAILWAY STORES PURCHASES. "The board had pursued the policy, which it found in operation on assuming control of the Department, of giving preference •in the purchase of its materials, firstly to New Zealand products, and secondly to British Empire products," states the annual report of the Railway Board presented to Parliament yesterday. "It has also aimed to steadily reduce the amount of capital locked up in stores stocks, and very substantial progress has been made in this direction during the year. A thorough organisation has been developed for careful inspection of stores, with a view of keeping stocks in the best condition and at the lowest quantity consistent with efficiently meeting the requirements of the Department."
