WELLINGTON, This Day. “We have not the faintest idea of the- details or extent of the Government’s proposals.

Other dealers approached said they were working completely in the dark. If restrictions were applied to imports of motor-vehicles, and the trend of events' suggested that this would come to pass, it would mean a curtailment of staffs.
