In conversation op Saturday morning with Mr E. Walkley, the. Sydney representative of Yalumba Vineyards (South Australia), who is on his annual visit to this Dominion, a Dunedin Evening star reporter learned that the total yield of the last vintage in South Australia was ten million gallons ; also that London is taking large quantities of the South Australian port wines, the anticipation being that the total for London for 1926 will bea million gallons. Mr Walkley says that this boom in the vineyards output is due to the bounty given by the Federal Government, the wish of the Government in giving the bounty being to encourage returned soldiers to go in for grape growing, and another aid to the South Australian industry is .the preferential duty given by England. Reductions in ‘telephone charges are favoured by tine Wellington Chamber of Commerce, which 1 holds the view that a lowering of rates; would tend to popularise the service still fuither (reports the Dominion):. In asking the coming conference of the Afoociated Chambers of Commerce to agree to a remit to this effect the Wellington Ch'ambei will include a suggestion that when a surplus results from, the* working of the telephone branch off the Post and Telegraph Department concessions in the annual rates should be given its users.
