CASE FOR INCREASE IN MEAT PRICES
Wairarapa Proposal Dominion Special Service. MASTERTON, August 22. A resolution that a case for an increase in meat prices be stated before the Stabilization Commission was carried at a meeting today of the Wairarapa Federated Farmers’ provisional executive. “The increase of wage rates in industry’ reminds us that we are due for a revision of prices affecting hill country farmers, more particularly those for cow beef and ewe mutton,” said Mr. L. T. Daniel), “We have not forgotten that the price of ewe mutton was drastically cut by Mr. Barclay in 1941 and 1042, and a compensating increase is overdue. A comparison with other branches of primary production with other sections of the community and with other primary producing countries makes us feel wp are being subjected to conscription of an unequal kind.”
