REALITIES OF WAR
OPPOSITION LEADER'S VIEW
"One deplores the necessity for any restriction on any New Zealand-pro-luced commodity, specially in view of the extra effort the producers are making to assist the war effort by increasing production," said the Leader of the Opposition (Mr. Holland). "The announcement by Lord Woolton comes as a great disappointment to New Zea land, and it is to be hoped that as the improvement in the general war situation continues the restriction will be of a very brief and temporary nature.
"The announcement will bring it home to the people of New Zealand that, though so far removed from the actual war zone, we are not immune from the effect of hostilities. The provision of a vastly-increased storage capacity in this country since the beginning of the war should enable us to cushion the effect of the present restriction on the primary producer."
