FREEZING INDUSTRY
DISSATISFACTION IN HAWKE'S SAY For some time rumours have been rife that the freezing industry’ has not been running too smoothly in Hawke’s Bay (states a Napier paper). It is now r learned that a petition calling on the directors of the Hawke’s Bay Farmers’ Meat Company to convene an extraordinary general meeting has been in circulation since the beginning of the year. The cause of complaint is not disclosed m the paragraph, but one prominent farmer remarked to a newspaper representative that “ a rich heritage is slipping from our grasp, and it is high time the attention of the Government is drawn to the serious drift of the moat industry.” Apart ’from the extraordinary meeting of shareholders of the Hawke’s Bay Fanners’ Meat Company, it is anticipated that a general rally of farmers will be called very shortly, much on the lines of the recent Wairoa meetings, with the object of considering entire control of tiio freezing works by the sheep farmers.
