Centenary Exhibition A Business Enterprise
Press Association —Copyright. Wellington, September 1
The first formal steps towards the formation of a public company to manage the centenary exhibition were taken at a meeting of a citizens’ committee. Subsequently the Mayor, Mr. T. C. A. Hislop, stated that all the principal points had been finalised and the necessary documents would be completed, the company formed and application made for registration within the next few days. The actual capital to be subscribed would be £150,000 which, together with subsidies promised by the Government, £75,000, would be sufficient to cover the cost of launching the project, said Mr Hislop. He was definite that Rongotai would be the site of the exhibition.
