STABILISING BUTTER PRICES
A proposal to amplify the Paterson plan and to stabilise the dairying industry throughout tho Commonwealth was submitted to a meeting of representatives of co-operative butter factories held in Sydney’recently. The plan was designed to prevent factories from competing for the Australian trade, and to protect, them from inter-State competition. This was to be brought about by an all-Australian price of butter, which would “obviate cutthroat competition and stabilise the industry." A pool was to be established in each State, and equalisation of prices would be operative in each State. In this way each factory would receive a similar return for all butter sold, those sending all their butter to the London market sharing the profits on local sales with those confining their operations to itustralia. The all-Australian price would of course return a handsome profit to those in the industry, and any discrepancy between it and the London parity would fie regarded as a loss and be apportioned equally among all the factories in Australia. The bugbear of f.o.b. selling would thus be overcome, as London buyers would not be able to operate in Australia unless they paid the fixed price. The co-operative ideal of consignment. selling would be realised. It is suggested that promoters of the plan might find that actually it would not be easy to obtain the assent of all States to fixing their prices in accord with tho wishes of that State which happened to have the least, or the most,' butter ready for the market.
MORTGAGES AND INVESTMENTS In their annual review, Messrs. Pyne, Gould, Guinness, Ltd., state with respect to mortgages, that “there appears to have been sufficient money available to meet reasonable demands. The State Advances Office, no doubt, has to some extent supplied a want, but except at the early part of the year the demand for mortgage money on good securities has not been great. For the most part mortgagors have already obtained on mortgage as much, or more than they are entitled to upon their land. Very few mortages have been repaid, but the main reason why the mortgage business has been dull for some time is that very little land has been changing hands. Where it has changed hands it has been very often at the instance of the mortgagee. in which case the mortgagee has left the greater portion of his money still upon mortgage on the property, and it is thought that this state of affaire must prevail for some time. Even if the price of land conies down still further, investors in land will not become plentiful until those now on the land have made sufficient to justify them in launching out further. During the past few years the amount borrowed by local bodies must have run into many millions. Previously much of this money came from outside, but now it is apparently furnished from sources which previously supplied mortgage requirements. The money available for investment upon mortgages in New Zealand is practically all what may be termed as local money, but the amount available is undoubtedly very largely affected by the attractiveness or otherwise of other trust investments, such as local body loans.
