The proposal to arrange for a direct shipping service between the United Kingdom and New Plymouth was discussed at a meeting of Taranaki importers here this afternoon. It was stated that the general average amount of cargo brought by overseas vessels was 15,000 tons, and the speakers agreed that Taranaki could provide this every three months. It was stated that, the Shaw, Savill liner Mamari would leave London in July for New Plymouth direct if cargo was guaranteed, and steps were taken to do this. Other vessels will follow as long as cargo is provided.
