Equitable Building advanced to 61s, but sellers held firmly for £5. Mortgage Corporation had sales at 6s 2d and 6s 3d. There was a fair inquiry for gas shares. Christchurch were easier at 345, and Wellington were wanted at 395. National Insurance sold at 20s Bd, but New Zealand were easier on business at 64s 4d, South British improved to 93s 6(1.
