EXPORT RESTRICTION
HOME GOVERNMENT’S MOVE. SURVEY OF SITUATION. THE DOMINION’S POSITION. (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) LONDON, April S. The News-Chronicle says: “Powerful commercial and political interests are trying to exploit the situation consequent on the expiry of the Ottawa dairy agreements in June, 1935. Mr W. Runciman (President of the Board of Trade) is so involved in foreign trade agreements, and Mr W. E. Elliot (Minister of Agriculture) so entangled with British marketing schemes, that the Government will probably restrict New Zealand dairy imports when the Ottawa agreement expires. “A large farming section in New Zealand appears quite prepared to ruin local industry in return for unrestricted agricultural markets. British manufacturers are organised to support this attitude. British and New Zealand commercial interests are issuing propaganda pressing their individual desires. Thousands will be made or lost speculating on the ultimate AngloNew Zealand agreement.”
