Swedes are offering from Southland at 30s. to £2 per ton on trucks, and would gladly be purchased here, but railage makes the cost prohibitive. Could your Department give any relief to local farmers by rebating the whole or portion of the railage, to enable them to replace the winter food already consumed?"
