MEAT AND SHIPPING
; PROBABLE EXTENSION OF COMMANDEER.' In a recent statement the Hon. D. fi. Gutlirie, Minister in Charge of Im- : porial Supplies, said that ho hoped that ; atf'the end of 1919 New Zealand would i be in no worse position regarding the I Bhipment of her frozen produce~than ; she will be in at the end of the present ■■■ year. Referring to this matter again i yesterday, Mr. Guthrie said that this : would be so if the shipping in sight : came along, but there was, of course, I no guarantee that the ships would be : sent here. It was encouraging, how- ; ever, to find that freezing companies yho could possibly do so were arrang- ; ing to increase their storage capacity. I Intimation had already reached him I that several companies had decided to ; do this. ..
Referring _to the extension of the meat requisition scheme, the Minister said: "AH that I oau. say about the meat commandeer is that the matter has been laid before the Imperial authorities at Home <by Mr. Massey, and the question is now under their consideration with an indication of a favourable reception."
