THE AMERICAN MARKET
A SOUTH ISLAND COMPLAINT. Complaint is made in the animal report of the South Island Dairy Association that tho South Island producers can get no benefit from the export trade with America now in course of development. After remarking tliafc the exports of dairy produce to Vancouver and San Francisco aro increasing the report goes on to state that in this .trado "Lyttelton and Duncdin cannot participate much, as tho contract, is made purely in tho interests Vrf the North Island, and mainly Auckland, for the Vancouver trade. Any future eontract ought to include coastal freight from all ports, as is tho case in our London shipment contracts with Shaw, Savill, and Albion and New Zealand Shipping. Companies. They get no subsidy at all. but our Government pays the Union Steam Ship Company a heavy subsidy, and this ought to benefit net only the North Island, but all the Dominion. Tho. costal freight pttts ths South Island factories at a groat disadvantage—practically out of tho trade to any extent."
