DAIRY EXPORTS
QUESTION OF CONTROL
VIEWS OF CHAMBER OF COM- ■ MERCE.
The expressed intention of the Dairy Control Board to apply for an Order in Council to establish absolute control over all dairy produce for export is not approved by the' Wellington Chamber of Commerce. At a meeting held yesterday, the following resolution was carried by the chamber:—"That the Wel.lington Chamber of Commerce views with grave alarm the expressed intention of the Dairy Control Board to appry at once for an Order in Council to establish absolute control over all dairy produce for export, and considers that such drastic and far-reaching action,, upsetting all existing marketing methods, should not be endorsed by the Government. That it was understood when the Dairy Produce Export Control Act was passed that the extreme pow«rs of absolute control given to the board by that Act -would not be put into operation except in a grave emergency. No such emergency has arisen, and no attempt has been made by the Dairy Control Board to regulate" shipments and regularly feed the oversea markets with New Zealand dairy produce on the same lines as the Meat Board has so successfully worked with meat."
