Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright
LONDON, October 14. “ The housewife holds the key to the situation,” says the Empire Producers’ Association in a memorandum which it has prepared for submission to the Imperial Conference. It says that vigorous advertising of Empire products is needed, but first an apireal must be made to iho housewife. Further than that, advertising should be in the hands nf the producers. The memorandum, in the first place, advocalcs Empire preference, not only in tariff, hut in income lax, on Empire investments as compared with foreign investments, and also in materials used in Government and'public contracts. It urges that statutory sanction should be given to the producers’ organisations to enable them to act comprehensively in the way the New Zealand Meat Board does. The conference is invited to consider the necessity nf fast refrigerated ships in the Australian and New Zealand trade, and to give its approval to the contemplated Imperial Producers’ Conference.
