Prom Our Own Correspondent SUVA. July 19.
BUILDING applications to the Suva Town Board for the quarter ended June 30, 1948, represented a total value of £32,254. A large proportion of the applicants were Indians.
The largest individual item was for a tyre shop, valued at £3,300, for an Indian.
Next came a shop and living quarters, valued at £2,900, and two houses, valued at £2,500 and £2,000 respectively—all for Indians.
The only European applications which topped £l,OOO were for two extensions to industrial premises.
