A report on expropriated properties and businesses in the mandatory territory of New Guinea, tabled in the House of Representatives, shows the estimated cash deficiency to be £170,000 by the Expropriation Board, bringing the total liability to £1,063,544 to the end of this month. It is expected this will increase till June 30, 1927, after which an annual surplus is anticipated. Emphasis is laid oil the unsatisfactory state of the copra market, and the report says that the near future of the territory depends greatly on an im-proved'market.—Aus.-N.Z. Gable Astm.
