BUTTER OUTPUT
BOARD DECIDES TO RETAIN 20 PER CENT. By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, December 7. At its meeting yesterday the New Zealand Dairy Board considered the Australian request that at least 20 per cent, of the current season's grading should be withheld from immediate shipment so that shipments could be spread better throughout the year. The position was fully discussed, it being pointed out that the New Zealand Dairy Board had always adopted a policy of regulating shipments and spreading supplies. It was decided to notify the Austr: '.ian Board that the New Zealand Board entirely favoured retaining at least 20 per cent, of the total gradings in the Dominion, and to state that by the end of December, New Zealand would have 21,000 tons of butter in store, representing the whole of the December gradings and 26 per cent, of the manufacture to date. The New Zealand Board has guaranteed until after the end of March to retain in New Zealand not less than 20 per cent, of the season's manufacture to that date.
