RATES ON NATIVE LAND.
FARMERS URGE PAYMENT. By Telegraph —Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. The fact that native lands do not pay rates has ever neen a sore point with farmers. At to-day’s conference of the New Zealand Fafrmers’ Union Mr. D. K. Wilson (Piopio) moved that the Union co-operate with local bodies in connection with rating native lands and that the Native Land Act should be amended in order to see that native lands paid their fair share of taxation. Mr. Wilson said that a local body on which he sat had to pay a charitable aid rate, but it did not coHeet money from satires: that was unfair. Mr. W. D. Lysnar. M.P., strongly supported the motion, which was carried.
