DANISH BUTTER COMMITTEE. NO COMPULSION. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received Juno 1, 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, May 31. A former member of the Danish Butter Committee, in an interview with the Australian Press Association, said that the committee’s function was to receive from the dairy farmers’ co-operative associations and exporters their ideas of selling prices, with a view to arriving at the value of butter week by week. There was no compulsion on anyone to buy or sell at a fixed price. Thus British importers could buy either direct from the producers or the exporting firms. This was the method before the war, and it was resumed after the peace, but for three years during the war there was Government control in respect to the export price and the destination of butter.
