MEAT QUOTA
MR DAVID JONES SATISFIED. “I suppose you want me to talk about quotas, but I can’t do that because I am about to make a report to the board and the Government,” said the chairman of the New Zealand Meat Producers’ Board, Mr ‘David Jones, when interviewed on his arrival in Wellington by the Rangitane yesterday after a six months’ visit to London.
He did not wish to say much more concerning quotas than that he thought New Zealand had been treated in a reasonable manner by the British. Government. Mr Jones’s visit was made on behalf of the New Zealand Government and the: board to assist in negotiations in connection with meat quotas. “The subject of . a long-term policy will be before the London conference' shortly, when representatives of all the Dominions, including Mr Forbes, will be present,'” he said. “But the long-term policy cannot be for very long because the Argentine treaty expires in 1936, and the Ottawa agreement runs on to 1937.” '
Mr ‘Jones said that some people seemed not to know that Britain had carried out her obligations to' the Dominions to .give them an .increasing share of trade.
