The Company has been formed for the purpose of establishing a Woollen Mill or. JtUisJn.or.>near„. Wanganui and Manufacturers and any other businesses provided for by the Memorandum of Association. GENERAL. Wanganui is considered to offer an admirable situation for the «rt*blishAent of * Woollen Mill- .It is the outlet foi alaree wool-growing district, from which annually at present large quantities of wool era exported. It is conveniently situatedwith regard to the railway system for the collection of raw material and the distribution of its products, and with the development of th© harbour and shipping, it may be expected to be.a.similarly .convenient port with regard to costal and overseL imports and exports. Its population is now approaching towards 22.000 and its development is rapid, and £ promises to be a centre of a large and ever-growing population. It affords admirable prospects for industries ot an Kinas requiring the employment of labour. . The Borough Council of Wanganui has been approached as to the supply,-of electric power, and has replied that by the time a Mill may be expected to be ready to commence operations, the Council anticipates bem* able to- sell such power as would be required by the Mill. This constitutes a great inducement to the establishment of the Mill iiv Wanganui within reach of such power. The alternative to electric power would be steam power,-which would be more costly both, as regards initial expenditure in buildings and plant, and also as regards operating expense, because of the extra labour involved and the price of coal. Ample water for the use of a MilU is also available in Wanganui; - * In view of'the general unsettlement in industrial'life all over, the world caused-by the War, and the rise in industrial r_ "- „_ „ ) ._j*.-„ **.„** -„„.,+,.,•,*., * mm ».i,.:„i, TVTo«r fca.= hif-hart*. drawn her woollen manufactures, and the d it necessary to no longer rely on is of low wases, but to 6et to work Wmmm other countries. It appears beyond question that the War and the nhsetflement_.it has caused have removed |he JafStoSfffmS New Zealand is by no means over-run with such Mills, indeed the existing 'Mills are quite unable to cope with, the demand for woollen goods. There is. therefore, it is thought, an ample opening for the establishment of such a Mill, in Wanganui. . . , ~ Attention is drawn to the fact that unlike most new ventures there is, absolntdy no in Company.
