He further said : "Tho new wharf at Westport has been used in loading the Penarth and other large vessels by crano with great success, and the despatch given to steamers is very good. Dealing with the increased output Mr Joachim said:— "The past year has been one of considerable anxiety to tho whole staff owing to tho difficulty of satisfying tho demands of our customers, which wero far in excess of our output.
