THE MEAT WRANGLE
Council to Control Supply ARGENTINE OPPOSING LEVY (Received 25. 10.50 a.m.) LONDON, June 21. Anglo-Australian meat meeting® were held to-day. Good progress was reported. A meeting of the complete Imperial assembly was held in the afernoon. In the meantime Mr. Walter Runciman again consulted the Argentine representatives. The Dominions are still awaiting Mr. Runciman’s report, without which it is impossible for Britain to submit practical propositions. It seems certain that the Argentine is continuing strong opposition to the penny-a-potin I margin between the levies ou Dominion and foreign supplies. Britain to-day offered concessions re. garding the meat council to be formed in London to control the supply situation. Australia and New Zealand both pressed that it must be purely an Empire council, feeling that if it included foreign meat interests, Dominion representatives would be swamped. Britain now seems included to concede this point.
