HIGHER MEAT FREIGHTS.
ANOTHER BURDEN ON FARMERS. PROTEST FROM WAIRAbApA. By Teiefraph.-7-PreM Association. Masterton, Last Night. At a meeting of three hundred Wairarapa at Masterton today the following resolution was unanimously carried: “That this* meeting of Wairarapa sheep farmers strongly protests against the advance recently made in the freights of frozen meat by the London Tonnage Committee, and requests the Prime Minister to make the strongest possible representation in the proper quarter to have the injustice removed.” The resolution was proposed by Mr. A. D. MeLeod, M.P., seconded by Sir Walter Buchanan, M.L.C., and supported by Mr. Hugh Morrison, president of the Wairarapa Provincial District Farmers’ Union. All the speakers entered a strong protest against the contemplated increase, which was characterised as an unfair- load on the already over* burdened farmer.
