WIRE FROM CANADA
IMPORT ARRANGEMENTS (By Telegraph.—Special to Times) AUCKLAND, Monday The importation of 2400 tons of fencing wire from Canada had been arranged, it was reported at a meeting of the Auckland District Council of Primary Production to-day. This would comprise about 60 per cent of the Dominion’s normal annual requirements of barbed wire, but only about 25 per cent of plain wire needs for the year. Supplies would be assigned to merchants in proportion to their previous imports. Negotiations were in progress, it was stated, to obtain further supplies of wire.
