IN EVENT OF QUOTA
ELTHAM SUGGESTION OPPOSED BY MINISTER [ Per Press Association. I ELTHAM, July 31. l-he Hon. J. A. Young (Minister of Internal Affairs) was interviewed, at Eltham regarding a suggestion that in the event of the application of a quota the simplest way for the Government to apply it to the butter industry would be to withdraw permisison for dairy companies to add 16 per cent, of water, thus automatically cutting down the bulk of the butter exported. The Minister, replying, said that personally he did not think such a course would appeal to the Government. It was not practicable for several obvious reasons, which he briefly outlined. New Zealand would not get any more for its butter in a dry state, but so much of it was blended at Home rhat the probabilities were that the blenders and not the producers would benefit.
