UNDISCHARGED BANKRUPTS.
OVER. THREE THOUSAND. (By Telegraph—Special to Standard.) AVELLINGTON, June 26. New Zealand’s Bankruptcy Act was considerably improved by tne legislation of 192?, which imposed many safeguards for the trading community, one of which—probably, not generally known—is that every year a special Gazette is issued containing the names, occupations, and addresses of all persons who on March 31 had been adjudged bankrupt since March 31, 1927, and had not obtained an order of discharge. The current year’s list contains 46 pages of names in small type, averaging 70 per page, showing that the number of undischarged bankrupts in the Dominion is approximately 3200.
