EXPORT LEVY ON PRODUCE.

FUND TO BUY OR HIRE SHIPS.

A plan to provide shipping for the carnage of New Zealand produce was advanced by Mr. 0. L. Marshall in his presidential address to the Wellington Farmers' Union Conference. "If no better way of raising money can be found, I would be prepared to support an export levy on all produce," said Mr. Marshall. "'The Government could collect it in thu sjtine way as a tax, and entrust the total amount to a board'of trustees who would havo power to invest it in buying or hiring ships, and each persci, who contributed would become a debenture holder to the amount «of his contribution. This seems to me to be a simple way of raising the money fairly ,md equally from all who are directly interested in gating our produce on to the Home markets at a reasonable rate. But tliu matter is so urgent Uint I think it is the duty of tli c union to make a special effort to find out the wising of farmers without further delay, and branches could be' instructed to'take a referendum on the subject in each <listrie) throughout the Dominion.*'
