/CITIZENS AND SETTLBRS-I-VJITIZENS AND SETLERS— WHY KEEP THE AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIES GOING TO THE RUINATION OF OUR OWN WHEN MONEY IS REQUIRED FOR WAR LOANS, SHRINKING REVENUE, AND EMPLOYMENT? WE THINK THE TIME HAS ARRIVED TO RESUSCITATE DOMINION WHEAT - GROWING, ERE IT IS TOO LATE, BY PUTTING OUR PROTECTIVE DUTIES ON A PARITY WITH THE AUSTRALIAN ONES, WHICH HAVE MADE AUSTRALIA ONE OF THE " GRANARIES OF THE WORLD, AT REASONABLE PRICES, AS UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS IT HAS ALWAYS HAD A SURPLUS, AND AMERICA IS BOOMING WHEAT-GROW-ING. WELL, WHAT IS NEW ZEALAND DOING? ' UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, GRAIN CONTRIBUTES ABOUT THREE-FIFTHS OF; THE CANTERBURY RAIL-j WAY REVENUE, WITHOUT MENTIONING ITS NUMEROUS ADJUNCTS. IF GRAIN-GROW- • ING IS KILLED, WHAT WOULD MAKE GOOD THE railway and labour deficiencies, as on the raw material there are always two labour handlings, but not so on the imported articles, just imagine north and south canterbury and north otag-0 huge sheep runs, and would not 'this serious and shortsighted innovation affect land values and all kinds of labour augmented with the shipping ports, lyttelton, timaru, and oamaru, in a state of collapse? without bran and sharps, how would our bacon, dairy, poultry, and carrying indus- . tries exist in the event of c an australian drought; is it business-like to v send our money to aus- • tralia for our food supply when it is subject TO DROUGHTS, AND FOR WHAT WE CAN' GROW IN.. ABUNDANCE IN THE DOMINION?—AS ABOUT HALF THE VALUE IN ALL INSTANCES IS LABOUR AND RAILAGES, , AND WITH OUR LADS RETURNING EMPTjOYMENT MUST BE FOUND FOR THEM, OTHERWISE THEY WILL GO ELSEWHERE, AND WE WILL BECOME OBSOLETE, THOUGH - IN OUR INFANCY.
