ASSISTING THE SETTLERS.
TO STOCK SECTIONS
Following the telegram respecting the assistance to improved farm settlers on Tangitu and Mapara blocks in the matter of stocking their sections, which was published in last issue of the Chronicle, the following letter has been received by Mr Jennings on the subject from Sir Joseph Ward:—
Referring to the deputation which you introducted on October 17th, and your subsequent letter of the 18th idem., covering a communication from Messrs L. J. Bacon, E. Guilford and P. Clark, setting forth the position and requirements of the settlers on the Tanigtu and Mapara Improved Farm sett'ements, I have to inform you that the whole matter has received very careful consideration, and the Commissioner of Crown Lands New Plymouth, has been instructed to visit these settlements at once, and ascertain the actual requirements of each settler. The Commissioner will then act as intermediary between the settlers and the stock agents in connection with the purchase of dairy cows, etc., the Government guaranteeing payment of interest on the purchase money, and undertaking to endeavour to protect the interest of the stock agents when leases are issued to the settlers.
