LAND FOR RAILWAY
ASSESSING COMPENSATION IMPORTANT POINT INVOLVED [BY TELEGRAPH PRESS ASSOCIATION"] WELLINGTON, Thursday During the hearing in the Supreme Court of two claims for compensation for land taken in the construction of the Tawa Flat railway deviation, the question was raised whether an appreciation in value, due to building the railway line, should be excluded in arriving at a sum to be awarded as compensation.

For that reason, tentative awards, framed in an alternative form, had been prepared in the present cases.
