A judgment of interest to local bodies was given by Mr J. I. Stout, S.M., at Feilding on Thursday. Tho inspector of Factories sued the Oroua County Council for using a place on the river bank for a stone-crushing plant, the place not having been registered as a factory. Tho magistrate found that as the plant was portable and was worked by a traction engine, both plant and engine being on wheels, it could not come within the definition of a factory. Tho information was dismissed.
