A claim of the Farmers' Co-op. Organisation Society of New Zealand Ltd. (Mr. M. J. Burns) against G. S. Bremner, Palmerston* North (Mr. B. Malone), was upheld. Bremner submitted that the debt had been satisfied by a number of troughs he had sent to the Farmers' Co-op., whereas the firm cohtended that it was to sell the troughs on behalf of Bremner and reimburse itself from the proceeds.
