DIRECT SHIPPING SERVICE.
MELBOURNE TO SOUTH ISLAND PORTS. CHRISTCHURCH, August 2. The re-establishment of a direct shipping service from Melbourne to South Island ports was discussed by the executive of the Canterbury Progress League last night.' It resolved to send a representative to the conference of Chambers of Commerce and Progress Leagues in Dunedin, and to instruct such representative to express the view that upon the information before it the Canterbury League was of the opinion that local authorities would strongly support the contention that any subsidy on a steamer service should come from the Government, and not from the local bodies.
