New Hebrides'

Land Case

The New Hebrides Joint Court in late March will hear a case in which the French Govern ment is seeking an injunction to stop Burns Philp erecting a building on land on the west side of Port Sandwich, Male hula, Island, pending final de termination of the ownership of the land.

The case will be defended by Mr. H. P. Ragg, barrister and solicitor, of Auckland, who is the son of Sir Hugh Ragg, of Fiji. Mr. Ragg was until recently practising in Fiji, and many Vila people would like him to establish a law practice in Vila.
