THE PRICE OF BUTTER
(To the Editor "N.Z. Timea.'T Sir,—ls not history repeating itself as to what the man, the company, the capitalist will do to keep his hoel on the poor in. cornering the butter, as has been done in this Dominion? In there is a splendid comer, and in Masterton I hear on good authority of one butter factory only just selling some of its last year’s output. Here is the position: What about the hundreds of thousands of children who will have to eat dry bread in New Zealand on account of their parents not being able to pay this big price for butter?. Why do not these synods, farmers’ unions, and ministers’ associations do something to prevent their fellow men and their young children from being deprived of one of the neoes■fiorios of life. —I am, etc., PAEENT. Pahiatua, July 10th.
