Advice was received by the Auckland Metropolitan Fire Board to-day that a £2500 fire engine and pump, ordered a considerable time ago for the use of the E.P.S.O. from a London firm, had now been released for export and would be sent as soon as shipping could be arranged. Reporting to the board the superintendent* Mr. W. L.
