Great complaints were made at tho meeting as to the delays in the transmission of messages, both in the daytime and at night. The directors intimated that these had become so serious that they intended to ask the Postmaster-General to do his best to have the matters remedied. From the discussion there appeared to be a general belief that the department has not enough operators nor sufficient wires to keep pace with the extension of business.
Mr J. L. Wilson, of Aucklsnd, was elected Chairman of Directors.
