There are now two permanent Tutor-organizers, who conducted classes during the 1923 session in the Manawatu and Buller districts. The work in the latter district was greatly interfered with by the closing of the mines owing to industrial troubles. For this and other reasons the Buller Tutororganizer has now been transferred to Taranaki. P. Levi, Chairman, Victoria University College Council. The Hon. the Minister of Education, Wellington.
