ATTITUDE OF FARMERS
CONDITIONAL CO-OPERATION
GOVERNMENT'S ACTIONS CONDEMNED
"We are prepared to co-operate with the Government to the fullest degree in order that the war may be efficiently conducted, but we must make it plain to the Government, and to everyone else in the community, that we are not prepared to co-operate with anyone to change our economic system to one that is simply slavery and domination, and where freedom is lost entirely," declared Mr. W. W. Mulholland, Dominion president of the Farmers' Union, and a member of the Dairy Industry Council, in an address at the special Dominion conference of the ward delegates of the New Zealand Dairy Board., which opened in Wellington today. He charged the Government with having* already taken action that could not be justified by the'war situation, and with having failed to take the country into its confidence regarding- its intentions.
