WILL CARRY ON
NO COLD STORAGE FOR UNION
FARMERS' UNION DECISION
The serious difficulties confronting farmers at the present time were voiced at the last executive meeting of the Auckland Farmers' Union, when it was reported that organisers found that what with extra work entailed through shortage of labour, and efforts to> assist on farms where neighbours had gone to vvai", couplet! with Home Guard activities, the average farmer had practically no time to devote to Union matters.
"'But," declared Mr J. H. Furniss, "the Union isn't going into cold storage until the war's over. More than ever we must intensify our efforts on behalf of the farming section and to the consequent advantage of the Dominion as a whole.
The Union members are doing much Jo assist the war effort, most of it of an unobtrusive nature, and tlie Union itself is jjlaying an important part in the nation's affairs during this period of crisis. We must keep up our activities at full strength."
