WOULD WIPE IT OUT
Mr. Massey And Internal Marketing
“Government members have been twitting the Opposition all day about what wo would <lo with the Internal Marketing Department if we become the Government, and I am going to say straight out from the public platform that the whole position will be reviewed if we are elected and the department probably wiped out,” said Mr. Massey (Opposition, Franklin), during discussion on the hruit Marketing Account estimates m the House of Representatives yesterday. He was convinced, said Mr. Massey, that the department was absorbing a larve proportion of the difference between the price paid for fruit by the public and the price the grower received. Lhe departments were costing far too much. The people were carrying them on tlieir backs. The time had arrived for a complete showdown because the Internal Marketing Department was getting too big a rake-off.
