YEAR

BY TELEGEAPH—PBESSf ASSOCIATION. AUCKLAND, Jan. 30. At the conference between the Auckland Chamber of Commerce and the Industrial Association to-day the question of holding an exhibition in Auckland next year, was discussed. . The idea of '-^holding an international exhibition was dismissed as impracticable, arid a resolution was carried affirming the desirableness of holding an industrial exhibition in Auckland in 1913, to embrace manufactures from all parts of New Zealand. The executives of two bodies were constituted a committee to take further action in the matter. It was stated that a communication Had been received by the Industrial Association from the Canterbury Industrial Association in regard to the proposed exhibition at Christchtireh, and that a reply had been sent stating that as Auckland was considered to have prior claim the proposal could not be.suyported.
