BUTTER DUTY INCREASE
WHERE NEW ZEALAND ERRED. (Per Press Association. —Copyright.) HAMILTON, Tiiis Day. “There cfin Ih- .little doubt Hint the nt.l it mle adoptedby Hie ('auadinn turnliermen has contributed in no small measure to the passing of flic butter t a niff now in force against. New Zealand,'’ remarked Mr McDonald, head of thi‘ Canadian lumber delegation during a vis.it to Hamilton, ‘‘New Zealand dairy companies,” he said, “were using Scandinavian timber for butter boxes and all attempts to induce the factories to use Canadian wood had failed. As a result lumbermen felt they would be justified in not opposing the increase. Had some agreement been reached as the result of the delegation’s visit to New Zealand, the position might conceivably have been very different.”
