According to a statement made y the Acting-Prime ’Minister (the lon. E. A. Ransom) in the House
the Finance Bill contains authority for a payment of £IOO,OOO to the Unemployment Board in anticipa-
ion of its estimated revenue up
to 31st March next. The Minister stated that by that date a fair aluount of money would have been received under the provisions of the Bill.
“There are so many people who cannot see beyond butterfat, and when he talk of land settlement they think that is what we want them to produce,” said Mr. W. J. Unldswoith at a meeting of the New Zealand Settlement League. '“There are, however, big possibilities in other directions. I claim that in the past we have been putting too many eggs in one basket, a fatal thing when the market gets a set-back. If we give attention to the production of more than one line we can stand a setback on one line far better than we can at the present time. When we are advocating land settlement we have not only butterfat in view.”
