In a 'lecture on ‘'New Zealand’s Industrial Future” the Professor of Eco- , no mi os at Auckland University College (Professor H. Belsliaw) said that the saw no reason why pastoral industries should not retain their .position of preeminence. The market l'or nvutton. lamb, and dairy produce should expand for 40 or 50 yearn and then stabilise. The only serious increase in competition likely was from the Argentine, and .possible from Siberia. There were also important markets in the East which might be developed'. The future with regard to wool was uncertain owing to the competition of artificial fabric. The speaker expected that with e.oser settlement dairying would encroach still further on sheep farming, which, j however, would always remain import- j ant, as there were many areas of light land suited only for sheep. Arable farming should retain itis present position, but was not likely to expand. The fruit industry had passed the experimental stage anil should slowly build up an export trade. The ex-Kaiser is still the richest man in the German Republic. The property which he and his family were allowed' to keep is valued at £25,000,000.
