PERMANENT BUILDING
MANUFACTURERS' MOVE WELLINGTON ASSOCIATION [BY TELEGRAPH —OWN CORRESPONDENT] WELLINGTON, Monday Having in view the development of local industries under the present Government's policy, and the consequent extension of the work of the central office, the Wellington Manufacturers' Association has decided ou the establishment of a home of its own and has purchased a property the corner of WiUis and Ghuznee Streets. Over 31 years ago the association, then the Wellington Provincial Industrial Association, agreed that it should have its own building, and, moreover, had the finance to purchase one, so that the decision of the members of the old association on September 27, 1897, is only now being given effect to. Since that time the association has been in its present office in Wakefield Street, in the old Technical College building, but the purchase of the Education Board's building and land by the City Council for the ultimate extension of the city buildings over the whole of the Town Hall block has put an end to that long tenancy.
