Coal Stocks Improved
Over the past four weeks railway stocks had improved at the rate of 1400 tons a week, stated the Minister of Mines, the Hon. P. C. Webb. As a result the Mining Controller had released an additional 1200 tons weekly from the Waikato mines for the household trade, and a further 800 tons had been released for a like purpose in the South Island. The Minister said it was still imperative that production be maintained at the highest pdssible level as there was a lot of leeway to be made up before stocks were restored to a normal basis.
