POWER POLES
CURTAILMENT OF IMPORTS.
EFFECT OF REGULATION.
(“Times-Age” Special.)
"Owing to the Import Control Regulations issued by the Government on December 5 no more poles will be shipped to New Zealand until a licence granting payment by the Government is received,” stated a letter from a firm received at today’s meeting of the Wairarapa Electric Power Board. “It is quite likely,” the letter : dded, “that the import of poles will be seriously curtailed, but nothing can be done until import licences are issued. From the information we have at present it will certainly be next January before the position is clarified. it will, therefore, be February or March before you receive any further poles.” The Secretary-Manager, Mr G. Brown, said the board was holding good stocks of poles and it would not worry them if they did not receive further supplies until February.
