NEW ZEALAND FLAX PACKS OVERSEAS FIRMS’ PRAISE. (By Telegrapn.—Pi ess Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Monday. “ Information has been received by me,” said the Minister of Industries and Commerce, the Hon. D. G. Sullivan, In an interview to-day, “from one of the leading men in the woollen industry in Bradford that reports on the use of New Zealand phormium tenax packs are very favourable and are giving confirmation of earlier impressions that opposition to the use of this pack was based on prejudice. 41 Further Information has been submitted voluntarily from one of the largest wool combing plants in Roubaix—Tourcoing, France, to the effect that the system employed in the side seams of New Zealand packs avoid the danger of fibres being mixed in the wool and the staff of these particular works readily understands its use. The firm in question is enthusiastic in its praise of New Zealand packs which, they state, reached them in excellent, condition.”
