CHILLED BEEF TRADE
EMPIRE HANDICAPPED HOME PRESS CRITICISM LONDON, Dec. 5. Eulogising the Maloja's chilled shipment as the most successful ever made, the Evening Standard, in a leading article, expresses the opinion that tho experiment opens up the prospect of depending entirely on the Dominions for meat not produced in Britain. The writer deplores the fact that while the experiment was progressing, Mr. Walter Runciman made a “black pact" with the Argentine, depriving Britain for three years of the power of encouraging the development of the Empire’s resources. Obviously, while the pact is operating there will be no room for Australian chilled meat. Meanwhile, the Argentine concessions to Britain are illusory. The'Daily Mail, in a leading article. says: “The system has not fulfilled the Government’s intention to raise cattle prices so as to enable the farmer not to work at a loss, for prices, are still as low as last year.”
