From Our Own Correspondent FT. MORESBY, December 31.
SOME measure of relief for producers from the primage duty has been granted by His Excellency the Lieut.- Governor, by an order that goods or packages for use in exporting Papuan produce shall be added to the list of exemptions under the Primage Duty Ordinance.
Such items will include hessian or the like used in packing rubber for export. The proclamation will take effect as from July last, and applica tions for refunds will be accepted.
