Making a Los. Mr Robertson said it wass mat- ter of extreme astonishment to him that such a propozel should be submitted with such a bald statement, At the last meeting he asked various questions and received various replies, sud at that time they were supposed to be "working at a profit. Now, how

ever, they were told that they were making a loss. The profit on the two mouths he did not consider, for two months' working was no- thing to go by. He would like any information as to the cost of feeding cattle. He understood that the figures at the last meet ing were purely imaginary and that afterwards it was found out that all that was told him was wrong. He thought that before such a resolution was put to the meeting they should be told how the thing was actually going and what the actual position was. This game of simply telling them that everything would be all right was not going to suit the majority of the shareholders. He wanted figures, not statements.

Mr. Welsh Any figures you may wish, as far as it lies in our power, you shall have.

Mr. Robertson: Were the figures at the last meeting correct? Mr. Welsh: The figuron given at the last meeting were entirely

erroneous.

Mr. Robertson contended that from the information they had been given they could not tell what the company was aojually doing. He considered they should have six months' careful working to consider, and then there would be some chance of seeing if anything was going to bs done.
