PROPOSED EXHIBITION.
AUCKLAND'S LOUD TRUMPETING OBJECTED TO. % TdUyatk-Pww ApKiattra. Christchurch, Saturday Nighjt. A meeting of the general committee of th« Industrial Association was held this afternoon. The following resolution was ;,' unanimously passed: "That this committee, having ascertained from the Auckland Industrial Association that it has definitely determined to organise an industrial exhibition of a colonial nature at Auckland during the course of the year 1912, decides to recommend the Canterbury Industrial Association to meet the views of Auckland Association as expressed in their letter by postponing the proposed Canterbury exhibition until 1913."
The commjttee will recommend Canter- | bury manufacturers to support the Auckland exhibition and glady co-operate in every way possible to ensure its guccess. The secretary was instructed, when forwarding the resolution to the Auckland Association, to state that the committee had read extracts from the Auckland daily papers in connection with the proposed exhibition, advancing the claims of Auckland as being "the leading commercial and manufacturing centre of the Dominion." The committee was of opin- • ion that while that sort of thing might be good advertising, it should be deprecated as likely to arouse resentment among people who know better, it was satisfied this loud trumpeting of Auckland's claims had not been inspired by ' the Auckland Industrial Association, and it was not responsible for such extravagant statements.
