CEMENT ALLEGGATIONS.
SITTING OF COMMISSION. (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, November 1. At the sitting of the Cement Allegations Commission Air Perry said it had been very difficult for his side to obtain evidence because people who were the parties affected were not ke<*a to give evidence as they were dependent on the other two companies for cement supplies. Still, he hoped to produce sTtch evidence as would conclusively satisfy the commission that an agreement that was in restraint of trade was illegal and that these companies might take advantage of the acute shortage of cement to start unreasonably high prices. Further, he hoped to show that the Board of Trade in authorising an increase had acted improperly and with a lack of judgment.
