SHOULD THERE BE LIGHT?
Prpss Association. * " AUCKLAND, April 8. The Shipmasters' Committee, which has been agitating for the erection of a lighthouse on Three Kings, has resolved to disband in consequence of the attitude of the Minister of Marine, the Hon. F. M. B. Fisher, in failing to keep what was regarded as a promise to light this danger to navigation. It recorded its protest against the Minister's wireless scheme, whi6h was considered useless except to vessels having powerful Marconi equipment. A further motion was passed that the Government should be held responsible for any casualty, if the Three Kings were not lighted within reasonable time.
