DAIRY CONTROL PRICE-FIXING.
To the Editor. Sir, —A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Price-fixing is now called price naming or price leading and the altered name has had a most soothing effect. Everybody is pleased, the opposition is in entire harmony with the ultra-control element and the resolution has been carried unanimously. The policy of the board has not been diverted one inch, the machinery for carrying it into effect has simply been switched over from petrol to electricity and the transformation is hailed with acclamation. The result is most gratifying to the supporters of ControL Dairymen have got absolute control in operation, price protection by a London committee of merchants and board members, business conducted under the twenty-one points memorandum of their own manager, Mr Wright and not a single resolution of the board rescinded in the operation. The board comes out with flying colours and not a single record of its previous decisions has been altered.—l am, etc., JOHN FISHER.
