From the N.Z. Farmers' Co-operative Association of Canterbury, Ltd., Christchurch, to the District Traffic Manager, Christchurch:—

Now that the 1931–32 Wool Season is over, we take this opportunity of placing on record our appreciation of the excellent service which we have had from you during the past five months. In this we particularly refer to the excellent supply of trucks and sheets which have been at our disposal during all periods in which wool was loaded out at a very rapid rate, following each Wool Sale.

We would like to mention that your Mr. Ayling has been a particularly good friend to us and we congratulate your Department on its excellent service and courtesy of its staff.
