HIGHER REBATE URGED
SUPPORT BY UNIOX An appeal is to be made by theiljfc} Poverty Bay provincial executive of-v t V the Farmers’ Union through the Dominion executive to increase the rebate of 6d per gallon on motor spirit used on farms.

It was decided to reply stating that the position was being carefully, watched by the union and to send & remit to the next meeting of the Dominion executive on the ' lines suggested by Air •o elicit.
