DAIRY INDUSTRY
BRITAIN'S POSITION. EFFECT OF DOMINION’S COMPETITION. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) London, October 28. At a meeting of United Dairies, Ltd., Mr Maggs (the chairman) said: “The effect of the tariff on dairy products hitherto is negligible. The duties on butter have not influenced prices owing to the increase in world production, the operation of quotas in other importing countries, and Empire supplies entering our market free or largely subsidized. There appears to be a real danger, if New Zealand and Australia continue the present rate of increase in dairying for long, that they will kill the Home manufacture of dairy produce, as they have already practically destroyed the sheep farming industry.”
