SUPPLY OF SPIRITS
IMPORT ARRANGEMENTS. (Bv Telegraph—Press Association.! AUCKLAND. April 27. Arrangements have been made by Mr J. K. Carruthers, representing the Distillers Company Limited, Scotland, and Mr Percy Cole, representing the New Zealand licensed trade, with the Government for the importation of supplies of spirits under licence for the second six months of 1939 in the terms of the conditions under the import control regulations. Spirits were included in the lines of overseas goods which were completely prohibited in the schedule announced by the Minister of Customs, Mr Nash. At tile same time the Minister said that the major factor responsible for the restrictions at this time was the conservation of sterling funds but should it be possible for importers to arrange goods to be supplied without a call on the Dominion's funds every consideration would be given to any applications which they might make in that regard.
