A STATEMENT CHALLENGED.

j . (To the Editor.) I Sir,—ln a recent issue of your paper Mr Corrigan is reported to have stated at a meeting of dairy producers at Wanganui that a certain firm offered Stratford _lS B£d per lb. for their output, whilst on the same day the best offer Kakaramea could get from the same firm was Is 7|d. If other statements made ( by Mr Corrigan in regard jto the proposed control scheme are on a par with the foregoing it is small wonder that the scheme-is meeting with determined opposition, for as far as the offer to Stratford is concerned there is not a tittle of truth in the statement. —I am, etc., .
