ECONOMIC STABILITY GIVING EFFECT TO RECOMMENDATIONS GOVERNMENT WORKING OUT PROCEDURE [Per United Press Association.] AUCKLAND, November 4. An assurance that the rece-mmendations of the Economic Stabilisation Conference would be given effect to the maximum, extent possible without doing harm to Now Zealand’s economy was given to-day by the Minister of Finance, Mr Nash. He said the Government was moving towards working out the procedure. Mr Nash said that working on f.he resolutions cf the conference the Government would have to determine the prices at which food and other essentials should be stabilised and the effect of this on the economy cf the Dominion. Ho was satisfied that unless stability in costs and prices were achieved New Zealand would meet difficulties far greater than those that followed the last war. There was, however, no reason why stability should affect access by all the people to food and other essentials that could be supplied from the. Dominion’s own resources.
