GUARANTEED PRICES.
LABOUR PARTY PLAN. Per Press Association. NEW PLYMOUTH, Sept. 10. Malting reference at Stratford to the guaranteed prices proposals of the Labour Party, Mr W. J. Poison. M.P., said there were two plans put forward by the Labour Party—Mr F. Langstone’s plan for exchange inflation and Mr M. J. Savage’s plan, which Mr Savage had now repudiated. Mr Poison declared that he had asked Mr Savage in his seat in the House what was the real plan, and Mr Savage had told him frankly that the only thing to do was to raise money by taxation from those who could afford it. It was a curious thing that Mr F. Jones, at Dunedin, Mr I‘. H. McCombs, at Lyttelton, and Mr Langstone, in his famous pamphlet, had all referred to taxation as the means of raising the money, and Mr Savage himself, in his speech to the last Labour conference, also did so.
