MORE REVENUE
SlbN OF t lIANdi: IN OITI.OOK "There has certainly been an improvement in the revenue from customs and other sources, which is pleasing," said the Prime Minister (the ttt. Hon. G. \V. Forbes) last evening, when commenting on the approach of the end of the financial year. He could say nothing about the extent of the improvement until lie saw the figures, but the receipts were better than had been csti- , lated. and the Government would be helped by the change. "The unproved position is an assurance of more confidence on the part of the community, and it shows that people are now doing some of the things thev had suspended for so long."' said Nil" Forbes. "I was in a shop to-day where a dealer m building supplies said that his business had never been better. I have been very pleased to learn that people are now beginning to move instead of standing still as they have done lor so long."
