SHORTAGE OF CEMENT

COAL NEEDED. The cement situation in Wellington is no better than it was a week ago, and if it continues so for another week it is slated that practically every job dependent on cement will have to be closed down. "The position is really becoming intolerable," said one contractor who had fine tooth-combed Wellington for cement. "If our cement works are to bo held up for the want of a few hundred tons of coal, it means that sooner or later every industry will be in tho same parlous condition as is the building trade to-day. What is the use of the Government urgh ing municipalities and others, to provide houses when it cannot oven 'influenco' a few' hundred' tons of coal towards the cement works of bho Dominion?"
