TEN-POINT PLAN.
Mr Goodfellow Replies to Critics. HELP FOR DAIRY FARMERS. Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, April 18. Mr W illiam Goodfellow to-day replied to various criticisms of his tenpoint programme for the dairy industry. Jn regard to farm mortgages, Mr Goodfellow said that the only satisfactory way was for mortgagor and mortgagee to get together. If the money raised by a penny-a-pound levy on local sales were wisely expended, the national income would be substantially increased, and both consumer and producer would benefit. In reply to Mr J. A. C. Allum, president of the Auckland Manufacturers’ Association, Mr Goodfellow said that if New Zealand’s secondary industries were in such a bad way despite high tariff and high exchange, surely it was time a trial were given to a low tariff policy based upon efficiency. Answering the lion C-. J. Carrington, Mr Goodfellow said that the fact that New Zealand marketing methods in Great Britain were faulty had been repeatedly emphasised by himself and others for fifteen years. If Mr Carrington and other legislators had been sufficiently interested to see that the original legislation sought by the dairy industry had been received by it, the Dairy Board would have been established on an efficient basis from the start, and the national income would already have benefited by many millions.
