GROWING HOSTILITY
AGAINST DOMINION PRODUCE.
FARMERS APPREHENSIVE.
By Telegraph—Pres*: Association. AUCKLAND, May 20.
Apprehension at the growing hostility against Dominion produce in Britain, as evidenced by a threatened boycott of New Zealand butter in industrial areas in Midland counties, was expressed at the Auckland provincial conference of the New Zealand Farmers’ Union.
A motion was passed calling upon the Dominion executive to take the strongest measures possible to prevent the farming industry being jeopardised for the benefit of a relatively small section of the community.
Failing a satisfactory adjustment of the position by other means, it was urged that a campaign be organised to induce farmers to buy imported goods in preference to protected locallyproduced goods of a similar nature.
