FOOD PRODUCTION
DOMINION’S PART EMPHASISED Palmerston N., June 23. The part the Dominion must play in food production now and after the war was emphasised by the Minister of Finance, Mr Nash, addressing the National Dairy Conference. He said New Zealand should not send any more men overseas, except replacements, but should concentrate on producing every pound of food she could. Mr Nash spoke of the work of the Food Conference at Hot Springs, U.S.A., stating that a permanent world organisation was needed to see that those needing food got it. At present not enough food was produced for world requirements. There might be a good case for New Zealand to go without in order to allow starving nations to benefit for a while from the Dominion’s production.—P.A.
