PAPER AND PROTECTION.
A MANUFACTURER'S COMPLAINT. By Telegraph—Press Association. Dunedin, Monday. In his speech at the annual meeting of tihe New Zealand Paper Mills, Ltd., to-day, the chairman (Mr. F. W. Mitchell) said: "I cannot close my remarks without referring to the unfortunate po- ' aition which has arisen through the reciprocity arrangement existing between New Zealand and Canada. By it manufacturers of paper axe entitled to ship their goods in subsidised vessels at very low freights, and, escaping the preferential CustomsL tariff, arc providing our most serious competitors. No effort is being spared by the directors to cope with this, but undoubtedly it is a difficulty of some magnitude. A big trade, however, will, we expect, be a big factor in dealing with it."
