Timber Men To Talk With P.M.
(N.Z. Press Association) WELLINGTON, September 2. A delegation from the Timber Merchants’ Federation will meet the Prime Minister (Mr Holyoake) and senior Cabinet Ministers tomorrow for a general discussion on the timber industry. Confirming the visit tonight, Mr Holyoake told reporters that he had been given no details of the subjects likely to be raised. But, he said, it was inevitable the discussion would include the question of timber prices. The president of the Sawmillers’ Federation (Mr K. C. A. Carter) said in Auckland recently that an increase in timber prices was inevitable, and that some lines could go up by 7 per cent.
