During the discussion the establishment of retail shops and depots for the sale of meat in England was advocated, and members were, advised to concentrate their attention against Trusts. It was contended by Mr. Lysnar (Gisborne) that the slump in Britain was deliberately engineered. Mr. McPherson (Oamaru), supporting the motion for the establishment of retail shops in England, asked what was the use of having a Farmers’ Shipping Company if the meat was. going Home into the hands of Trusts.
