Brewery For Wau

From Our Own Correspondent.

WAU, January 2.

TVriTH the return to Wau of Mr. J. Cas- ’’ sel, promoter of New Guinea Breweries Limited, the organisation of the company goes on apace, and share subscriptions are being called for.

The plant location is on Wau Creek, about a mile from the town. The water of this creek has been analysed and it is believed that the report was most favourable for the purposes of brewing. The company has arranged for a brewer from Germany to be in charge of production.

A public notice issued by N.G. Breweries Ltd. on December 14 advised intending shareholders that 10,000 shares had been allotted to the Mandated Territory. The balance of the shares had been placed on the Southern market and had been overscribed. It was advised that the forms of application could be obtained from Messrs. W. R. Carpenter and Co.

Ltd., Salamaua; the Bank of New South Wales, Wau; and the manager of Mandated Airlines Ltd., Wau.

This notice suggested that there is a connection between the new brewery company and Messrs. W. R. Carpenter and Co. Ltd. The latter firm also has a controlling interest in Mandated Airlines
