REGISTRATION OF TRADE MARKS.
Revenue.
8. The revenue derived from the registration of trade marks showed an increase over that for the preceeding year, although a smaller number of certificates was granted. This is accounted for by the fact that a larger number of existing registrations was renewed.
Opposed Registration.
9. Three applications for registration were opposed during the year. In one case judgment was given in favour of the opponents. The other two oppositions are still pending.
Total Revenue and Expenditure.
10. The following are totals of revenue and expenditure for the department for the year 1933 and 1932 respectively. (including the salaries of officers of the Junior Clerical Service):
