DAIRYING PROBLEMS.
MR SAVAGE’S SOLUTIONS. Per Press Association.
TAURANGA, 'Nov. 22. In an address here, tile Leader of the Opposition (Mr M. J. Savage) made an exhaustive survey of the position of the dairy farmers in the light of the Dairy Commission’s report and of the recent legislation. He criticised what he termed the chief elements of autocratic government in the Agriculture (Emergency Powers) Act, stating that autocratic government in in-dustry-as a whole must inevitably be followed by similar methods in the Parliament of the Dominion. He considered the immediate need of the primary industries, with particular reference to the dairy industry, was a readjustment of mortgage liabilities and a guaranteed price for produce which could be maintained by the productivity of the whole of the industries and services of tlio Dominion. The main problem to be solved, he contended, was the money problem, and this could he brought . about by establishing a national banking system with absolute power to issue and control money in keeping with the requirements of production and distribution.
