DOMINION MANUFACTURERS
THE MINISTER’S TRIBUTE “TACKLING THEIR JOB WITH DETERMINATION " (Per United Press Association.] CHRISTCHURCH, November 27. “ Manufacturers and their employees can and will produce an increasingly large proportion of goods required by the Dominion,” said the Hon. D. C. Sullivan, when saying farewell at Haunter this morning to the delegates who attended the conference of the New Zealand Manufacturers’ Federation, which concluded to-day. The conference was the largest and most widely representative over held by the federation. The Minister expressed his pleasure at the opportunity which the conference had afforded him of discussing with tho manufacturers, both individually and collectively, their problems. The most pleasing feature to him was tho complete absence of anything in the nature of defeatism. Manufacturers, in common with the rest of the community, undoubtedly had their problems and difficulties arising out of the war situation, but they were tackling their job with determination and a spirit of confidence.
At the conclusion of his address, Mr Sullivan was given an ovation.
