CLAIMS OF THE NORTH [from our own correspondent] "WHANGAREI, Tuesday When ho returns from the Bay of Islands electorate on Thursday the Minister of Mines, the Hon. P. C. Webb, will meet a deputation of miners' at Hikurangi, and in tho evening will discuss with a deputation of trade union representatives tho question of a soparato industrial district for North Auckland. There has been a strong movement among unionists in the North Auckland area to have this territory declared a separate industrial district. It is claimed that unionists are penalised by the centralisation of the unions in Auckland, which is the centre for a district extending over tho whole of North Auckland and as far south as Gisborno and Taranaki.
