MacDonald said he had received information from England which led him to believe that New Zealand was going to be asked to help Britain to fight the Meat Trust. They would have to com© to a standing'agreement to sell the produce of the Dominion at certain prices in London, and if the Trust brought prices down they would|have to beat it on its own ground. A suggestion oh these lines had come from England.
