STATE PAPER MILL
« GOVERNMENT PLANS WELL FORWARD (New Zealand Press Association.) WELLINGTON. August 9. The Government’s plans for the Murupara pulp and paper mill project were well forward, said the Commissioner of Forests (Mr C. F. Skinner), replying to the second reading debate on the Forests Bill in the House of Representatives to-day. The House would be given an opportunity to discuss a report that would be tabled soon. Mr F. W. Doidge (Opposition. Tauranga): Is the dollar situation likely to delay the scheme? Mr Skinner: I don't think so. Dollars don’t come into this, or they need not. Mr Doidge: You are not buying dollar machinery? Mr Skinner: Machines are available in Britain or the sterling area, but they will cost much more.
