“Dairy Board Went too Fast”
A QUESTION OF TACTICS FINANCE MINISTER’S DOUBT (Special to THE SUN.) FEILDING, Monday. Is dairy control a “wash-out”? was asked of the Hon. W. Downie Stewart to-night. Mr. Stewart said that, personally, he believed the hoard had made a mistake in trying to do, in one year, that which, if feasible at all, should have taken 5 or 10 years to do. The board should have felt its way instead of rushing the fences as it did. Apart from the question of tactics, he was convinced that the outcry raised about the Prime Minister's attitude was unwarranted, and the position v,o! i have arisen whether Mr. Coates w. it to England or not. The experience of other pools in America and other countries proved that endeavours to fix prices were failures, and he was unable to say whether the New Zealand Dairy Board could accomplish what others had failed to do. The dissension at Home was not from Tooley Street, who appeared quite indifferent, but from the actual consumer.
