U.K. BUTTER IMPORTS
Gloom In N.Z. Circles (Special Crspdt. N.Z.P.A.) LONDON. March 14Butter is such a “delicate” subject in London these days that it is difficult to find any optimists when the question is discussed. The announcement yesterday of Britain’s butter imports for the 1967-68 quota year by the President of the Board of Trade, Mr Jay, was a case in point. Neither political nor trading sources showed much enthusiasm, and unofficially they conceded it was “a holding operation—but no less important because it is so.” A certain gloominess, pard--1 cularly in New Zealand I circles, remains, caused primarily by the fact that any rise in the current uneconomic price of 300 s a cwt for New Zealand butter still seems a long way off.
