QUOTA PROBLEM.
RESTRICTION URGED.
MR. BAXTER ADDRESSES M.P.'S. LOWER PRICES ALTERNATIVE (By Telesranli. —Parliamentary Ueporter.) WELLINGTON, this day. The representative of the Farmers' Union of England and Wales, Mr. Thomas Baxter, to-day addressed a meeting of members of the Legislative Council and the House, together with heads of Government Departments on the subject of the application of the quota on dairy produce from New Zealand.
The meeting was held in private, but it is understood that Mr. Baxter broke very little fresh ground, confining his remarks largely to statements which have already been reported.
Mr. Baxter made a strong case for a restriction of exports from New Zealand, pointing out that unless farmers were prepared to accept some form of quota they would have to look forward to lower prices.
Cabinet met later to discuss various aspects of the question, but Mr. Coates stated tliis afternoon that there was nothing further that he could say for publication.
