However, the apâ€" peal against the whole assessment roll as drawn up at present, was dismissed on the grounds that the Court of Reâ€" vision was not competent to hear it. This appeal may go farther, and may result in a Higher Court hearing.

For the firsy time milling will reach 50,000,000 tons. As the milling rate is the true measure of the structure of the industry and thereâ€" fore the scope for employment, the significance of such an achisvement will need no emphasis. Since the abandonment of the gold <tandard, the tonnage has gradually increased, while the average grade has dropped from 6‘ dwts, in 1932 to dwts. in 1937.

The fight may later come into Parliament.
