CONCERNING AN APPOINTMENT. ,At d recent meeting of the Waitara Harbor Board a protest was made by a number of members of the Board who objected to Mr Wm, T. Jennings continuing to act on the Board, on the ground that his appointment as a member of the Waitara Harbour Board was invalid and illegal. It is stated that the protest was in due course forwarded to the Minister for Marine (the Hon. F. M. B.
