THE MEAT AGREEMENT
IMPORTANT DEPARTURE. ( Per Press Association.] CHRISTCHURCH, Oct. 14. The statement concerning the reduction which Britain proposed te make in her importation of frozen meat from foreign countries represents one of the most interesting developments of the trade within the Empire policy and is a new nnd unprecedented step for Britain to take,’’ declared Mr. W. Machin, president of the Associated Chambers of Commerce of New Zealand, this morning in commenting on the Ottawa pact: “It definitely reduces to a known level the competition of the most formidable rival of New Zealand and Australia in the English market for mutton and lamb and frozen beef, and holds the competition of that rival at this certain figure for a period of five years. The operations of the quota system applied to meat are new and tho results can only be obtained by experience*”
