Fiji Supply And Production

Board Ends

THE Fiji Supply and Production Board which was created in 1942 as part of the Colony’s war organisation was disbanded on December 31. 1946.

Since March 1946, only a small staff was retained by the Board and their duties consisted chiefly of disposing of surplus war stocks.

Through their efforts thousands of items ranging from jeeps and motor vehicles to kitchen-ware and dental equipment were sold in the Colony.

Mr. Edwin Clay, who has been living in Brisbane, will return to New Guinea in March.
