NATIVE LAND COURTS AND OTHER MATTERS UNDER CONTROL OF NATIVE DEPARTMENT. REPORT OF UNDER-SECRETARY FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 1927.

Laid on the Table of the House of Representatives by Leave.

Native Department, Ist July, 1927. Right Hon. the Native Minister, Wellington. Herewith is submitted a report upon the activities of the Department for the period ended 31st March, 1927. R. N. Jones, Under-Secretary. Native Land Courts. The appended tables indicate the number of sittings held by the Native Appellate Court and the Native Land Court respectively, and the amount of business transacted thereat. Fees collected totalled £6,239 17s. Id,, as against £6,791 ss. sd. during the previous period. Maori Land Boards.

Legislation passed during the 1926 session enabled the various Boards to assist Maoris within their respective districts in farming and otherwise utilizing their lands. The Maoris have awakened to the fact that if they are to retain their land they must make it productive, and the increased facilities given to them in the way of finance would appear to be opening up a new vista for them. A decrease in private transactions with Native land has caused a decrease of £400 in the yearly earnings of the Boards, which are as follows : Fees, £2,135 ; Commission, £5,358 ; as against £2,356 and £5,517 in the previous period.

Native Land Purchase Board. The area of Native land purchased during the period was 22,108 acres, and of that proclaimed 21,559 acres. Since the Purchase Board commenced to function in 1910, 1,414,215 acres of Native land has been purchased under its operation, at an aggregate cost of £3,387,573. Other Boards. Other Boards under the administration of this Department, such as the Maori Ethnological Research Board, the Maori Purposes Fund Control Board, and the Arawa District Trust Board, are all doing good and useful work in their respective spheres. A new Board—The Tuwharetoa Trust Board —was set up to control the funds arising from agreements with the Crown in regard to the Taupo Lake and the surrounding waters, and the members of the Board are taking up the duties of ministering to the welfare of the Tuwharetoa Maori tribe in a very sympathetic spirit. Estimate of Land still held by Maoris. The estimated area of Native land held by Maoris at the 31st March, 1926 (exclusive Acres, of that in the South Island) was .. .. .. .. .. .. .. 4,198,913 Sales to Crown .. .. .. .. .. .. 22,188 Sales to individuals .. .. .. .. .. .. 22,929 — 45,117 Leaving the balance still held by Maoris estimated at .. .. 4,153,796 General. It is with regret that I have to record the passing of a former Native Minister, the Hon. Sir James Carroll. He was an example of what members of the Maori race can attain if given reasonable opportunities of education and advancement. Being of the Maori, he thoroughly understood the doubts and misgivings which the changing order engendered in the minds of the older generation, while he was also well versed in the aims and aspirations of the younger members who foresaw greater opportunities for their race. He acquired an influence over the Maori mind unique in Native history, and, gaining the confidence of the European section of the community, he was able to lay the foundation of greater trust and friendship between the two races. During the period under review a visit was paid to the Dominion by Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of York. A special part in the preparation for the reception of Their Royal Highnesses was allotted to the Maori tribes, and this was carried out at Rotorua in a loyal and enthusiastic manner. The committee having control of the Maori ceremony comprised the following persons — namely, the members of Parliament representing the Maori race and Dr. P. H. Buck (Te Rangihiroa), and Messrs. H. R. H. Balneavis and H. Tai Mitchell. During the year a Royal Commission consisting of the Honourable Sir William Sim, senior puisne Judge of the Supreme Court, the Honourable Yernon Reed, M.L.C., and Mr. William Cooper was authorized to inquire into various Native grievances which have formed the subject of petitions to Parliament by Maoris. The findings of this Commission, it is hoped, will do something towards clearing the atmosphere and assist in removing some of the causes of complaint. The Maoris, in common with others, are affected by the fall in the price of primary products, and some of the Maori dairy associations are feeling the pinch keenly ; but it is worthy of note, and as exemplifying their zeal and enthusiasm, that the principal Maori dairy factory during the season just closed has doubled its output of butter, from 60 to 120 tons, and that next season the suppliers hope to have between four and five hundred additional cows in profit. Another noteworthy fact is that while, according to last year's sheep returns, the gross total of sheep owned by sheep-farmers in the Gisborne and Hawke's Bay sheep districts, being those localities where the* principal Maori sheep-farmers are located, decreased by 118,669, the Native flocks in the same district show an apparent increase of 2,700 sheep. The total number of sheep owned by Maoris is estimated at about half a million out of a total of 24,904,993 sheep held by sheepowners in New Zealand in 1926. The number of Maoris declared to be Europeans was during the period increased to sixty-six. Six persons qualified for the position of Native Interpreters and had licenses issued to them, and one person had his license revoked. R. N. Jones, Under-Secretary.
