AID FOR SAWMILLERS
LOSS OF AUSTRALIAN TRADE GOVERNMENT ACTION SOUGHT (THE SUN’S Parliamentary Reporter) PARLIAMENT BLDGS., Friday. The position of the sawmilling industry in New Zealand was put before the House this afternoon by Mr. J. O’Brien (Westland), who asked the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph Ward, whether, seeing that it was through the action of the previous Government that the sawmillers of New Zealand lost the whole of the Australian timber trade, he would take steps to help the sawmillers to regain that trade. According to Forestry Department reports, he said, there were 64,000,000 ft of cutable timber in the Dominion, and this was estimated to last 250 years.
