INDUSTRIES BILL.
POSTPONEMENT URGED. WAIROA, October 9. The Wairoa Chamber of Commerce, at its annual meeting, decided to write to the Minister of Industries and Commerce requesting that the final passing of the Industrial Efficiency Bill be deferred until next session.

Ashburn stated /that the Government was rushing too many measures through without giving them the fullest cons id eration.—(P.A.)
