This firm could not handle benzine in New Zealand, and failed to get any other firm to do ■m. It would be a pity, said Mr Wil- * lord, .to allow this chance to be lost. Therefore the Government should take it up. Mr Massey replied that the firm <-uncerned agreed to put the- offer before the Board of Trade.
