(U.P.A. by Elec. Tel. Copyright)
LONDON, March 9.
“English and New Zealand farmers should combine mutually to increase prices and regulate production,” said Sir James Parr at a Mersey Dock's Harbor Board luncheon.
New Zealand farmers realised that the British produce had first claim in Britain, but the New Zealand farmer should come next.: It was ridiculous that 50 per cent, of imported butter came from foreign countries and it was surprising that people wore content to buy Danish at 9Ss, when New Zealand sold at 70s.
He added that ho had just- contracted with British firms to supply the New Zealand Government with £IOO,000 worth of railwav materials.
