NATIVE LANDS COMMISSION.
By Telegraph—Press Association. NAPIER, March 11. The Native Lands Commission sat at Nuhaka, to-day, over a- hundred Natives being present. The enquiry was in connection with the Nuhaka No. 2 Block sub-divided by the Native Land Court a few years ago. One spokesman for the party pointed out the great expense the Natives had been put to in advancing the position of their titles and the long, delays owing to improper surveys. The want of proper titles was keenly felt at times when local differences revealed the insecurity of the present position. The Chief Justice complemented the local natives on the practical interest they had taken in the dairy industry as evidenced by the fact that over twenty of them were suppliers this season. He thought the Commission could assist them by arranging that they should get good titles to the land they were now occupying.
