"There must be a frightful accumulation of dairy produce in. the stores at Wellington awaiting shipment," remarked the secretary of a cheese factory to a Manawatu Standard reporter. "Take the case of our own company. Our last shipment was or April 6, when out of 575 crates oi cheese which we were desirous of ship ping space could be found for onlj 60. Since then we have not, through lack of ships, been able to dispatcl a single crate, and we have no advici of the next sailing. To-day we hay( 550 crates waiting shipment on th( wharves at Wellington, on which w< are paying interest and heavy storagi charges. This is a serious matterindeed we have had to actually reduc< the amount of our monthly advance t( • suppliers. And the irony of it all i that we are missing a favourable mar i ket for our produce. " , The statement, of the Hon. Mj Ooates that, out of the total number of unemployed put on relief works, th< largest proportion comes from the Wa nganui and Taranaki districts, wil 1 probably come somewhat as a surpria to the people of this coast (says th( Wanganui Herald). Perhaps we do nol express the fashionable view, but w< cannot help thinking that it be so— and we see no reason to doubt Mr Coates—it is a good thing for the Do minion generally, even if not so gooc" for the districts named. We have grown so used to reading tales of wot in the papers, and hearing them ut tered at Farmers' Union meetings, thai one would think the country was swarming with unemployed and th< , roads alive with swaggers. If, then ; other districts are better off than Wa I nganui and Taranaki, they cannot hav< so much to complain of as they make out. It depends, of course, on how well. or how badly, Wanganui and Taranaki are off. As an indication: two Wangamix residents who motored to New Plyj mouth a little over a week ago passed | exactly three swaggers in the stretch jof over a hundred miles. Coming bach i the next day, they saw the same three men, and these were all they did see. That does not look as if the roads swarmed with them, though no doubt I there might be more on some days | than on others. But, if that were the case in the two most depressed districts in the Dominion, it is evident that the jeremiads we hear from other districts should be taken with a grain of salt.
