FURTHER SUGAR SUPPLIES. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Jan. 15. The Hon. E. P. Lee, Minister of Industries and Commerce, states that the Government has purchased an additional supply of refined sugar from Australia for shipment before the end of January. This will result in saving a large amount of fruit for jam-making. THE RAILWAY BONUS. Christchurch, Jan. 15. In connection with the announcement that the A.S.R.S. had decided to take a strike ballot in the event of the cost of living bonus not being paid, an official states that the Prime Minister announced that he would give the men another Wages Board commission to go into the question of wages only The commission will consist of three representatives of the society, and three of the department, with an independent chairman. Members are asked to vote not on a straight out strike but whether they will support the executive in any action it may take.
