Lend - Lease Liabilities
(Special.) WELLINGTON, This Day. A request that the Minister for Finance (Hon. W. Nash) should indicate what New Zealand's remaining liabilities and responsibilities were under the lend-lease arrangement with the United States, now that the arrangement had been cancelled, was contained in a question asked in the House of Representatives yesterday by Mr E. P. Aderman (Opposition, New Plymouth). Mr Aderman also asked whether the Minister would state whether accounts had been kept of all the goods received from America, and also of those sent from New Zealand under the reverse lend-lease agreement, and of the estimated pi-ice of such goods. He sought information as to what the Government propbsecl to do relative to the ultimate payment of any balance on either side. As the cancellation of the agreement would create serious food problems in Britain during the c-oming- winter, he asked what form of relief did the Government propose to initiate.
