DRY BUTTER
A QUOTA SUGGESTION
"NOT PRACTICABLE"
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) ELTHAM, This Day. interviewed at Elthani today regarding a suggestion that in the event of the application of a quota tho simplest way for the Government to apply it to the butter industry would bo to withdraw permission for dairy companies to add 16 per cent, of water, thus automatically cutting down the bulk of the butter exported, the Minister of Health (tho Hon. J. A. Young) said that personally ho did not think such a course would appeal to the Government.^ It was not practicable, for several obvious reasons, which he briefly outlined. New Zealand would not get any more for its butter in tho dry state, he said, but so much of it was blended at Homo that tho probability was that the blenders and not the producers would benefit.
