LAND SALES ACT
Attitude Of Taranaki Dairy-Farmers (Bv Telegraph.—l’ress Association.) NEW PLYMOUTH, October 4. The attitude of dairy-farmers in Taranaki to the Servicemen’s Settlement and Land Sales Act was discussed at Stratford on Saturday at (he annual meeting of the Federation of Taranaki Co-opera-tive Dairy Factories. A motion requesting the New Zealand Dairy Board to move for an amendment of the Act was defeated b.v a large majority. The motion read: “That this meeting of dairy representatives requests the Dairy Bonn! to co-operate witli the New Zealand Farmers’ Union and other farming interests to have the Servicemen’s Settlement and Land Sales Act so amended as to do justice to those from whom land is taken and to restore the security of tenure to those already owning land.” The opinion was expressed that the Act had some merits and was not. directed against the owner of a 100-aere farm but against the holders of large areas. Farmers should assist tlie Governmiut in getting land for soldier settlement, and if farmers could not find a better method than the existing Act. (hen they should not hamper the Government.
