APPEAL TO FARMERS
CONSERVE PETROL MR. MULHOLLAND’S VIEW (Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. In a statement to the press, Mr. W. W. Mulholland, Dominion president of the Farmers’ Union, said the reasons, which arose out of the war conditions, that made it necessary for steps to be taken to conserve supplies of petrol and to economise in their use, had been communicated to him confidentially. From this knowledge he could endorse the appeal to practice strict economy in the use of liquid fuel supplies and, accordingly, he appealed to farmers to do so, and also that if the licensing system should be renewed, they would accordingly limit the amounts they named in their applications strictly to the quantity they would require.
