OUTLOOK FOR MAY IS BAD
...,''Th&,.o.utloqij,.for May is far from good," said the Prime Minister, referring to the shortage of cargo ships, outwards, for England. "I am endeavour- - illg to improve matters, and I am in communication both with' tho Homo Government and with Australia. We are especially short of u.eat ships, For June we are promised 11 ships, which is a very good allowance. There is not so ,much congestion in the stores this year as there was last year at this time because we liave more storage space, hut at thb\end '.of:,this month wo shall liavo more'meat in' store than we had at tho end_ of April 1 last year. I am quite satisfied, however, that we shall get all the meat away before the now season's meat comes in. All that I have said applies, of course, also to dairy pro. diice."
