UNEMPLOYMENT
FARMERS DISCUSS PROBLEM Press Association WELLINGTON, Today. The Farmers’ Union conference today considered a number of remits dealing: with unemployment, these being: the expression of all sorts of views. Some were opposed, and for others a committee was set up to bring something out of them acceptable to the conference. The committee consists of Messrs. Colbeck, Matheson, Johnson and Mulholland. A Southland remit requesting the Government to compile Unite tables showing the trend of farming costs since 1914 and export values with a view to trying to adjust the farmer's income and expenditure was carried. Remits carried were:—“That to ensure that each member of Parliament shall have been elected by a majority vote the elections should be conducted under the preferential voting system. “That urgent steps should be taken to check the increasing numbers of deer.” A remit was also carried favouring the nationalisation of all resources in the event of war and that machinery for this purpose should be designed at once.
