Colonel Closey stressed the difference between the small amount of New Zealand butter given in exchange for a motor-car overseas, and the amount given by the farmer when he buys a car in New Zealand owing to the prohibitive tariffs, etc.
At the conclusion of the meeting a resolution was passed endorsing Colonel Closey’s explanation of the compensated prices, and pledging those present to use every endeavour to make it an accomplished fact.
