PRICE-CUTTING
A CORRECTION. An error in the telegraphed report bf a speech delivered by the Minister of Industries and Commerce (Hon. A. D. McLeod) before a conference of master grocers at Nelson, is liable to create an entirely wrong impression. In the report, which appeared in yesterday’s issue, the term “large farmers” appeared instead of the term “the average farmer.’ The Minister’s statement therefore should have read as follows:— “The Minister said he held a dual position as Minister of Industries and Commerce, and he tried to keep the balance even when considering the statements of these conflicting interests. His advice to each was that they shoull try to understand each other better. Generally speaking, the manufacturers and retailers, through their various "organisations, had done their share' in trying to get in touch with the man on the land, and the average farmer (not some of his so-called representatives) was reasonable and was prepared to listen to the views of the man in town.”
