was informed by Premier Ferguson this week that. the Government would no longer grant 8100.000 tow- ard administration of the Compenst - lion Board. The manufacturers might be hard up. but the province was even more so. An important saving has been made. it is learned. in‘connection with Government ad- vertising. for the placing of which the late administration paid generâ€" nus fees to various agencies. Hither- to. departments have individually looked after their‘own advertising in various publications, with na-_: tural overlapping of effort and the‘ maximum of expense. This work has been coâ€"ordinated by the new Government; it has been possible to get lower rates. and a lot of adver- tising placed for benevolent motives .
