STATE SAWMILL HUNG UP.
DARGAVILLE ON THE JOB.
When in Wellington some few days ago, Mr Dargaville conferred with the Prime Minister on the question of the establishment of a State sawmill. This (Friday) morning Mr Dargaville received a letter from Mr Massey with reference to the petition of the residents of Dargaville asking for a State sawmill in connection with the Waipoua forest. Mr Massey said: With reference to a State sawmill, the matter has been very fully gone into with the departmental officers who have received their report from the Commissioners. Several of the schemes that had been submitted to f him would involve a very large expenditure, and in view of the war the question would be held in abeyance. In the meantime, continued the letter, in order to ensure the safety of the ferest two extra rangers would be selected to guard it.—Dargaville "Times."
