EXPORT QUOTAS
FUTURE OF NEW ZEALAND MUTTON AND LAMB. “ALL RIGHT AT PRESENT.’’ In the opinion of Sir William Perry, I acting-chairman of the Meat Producers’ Board, there is no danger at present of New Zealand’s quota of lamb and mutton exported to Great Britain being restricted. Speaking at Wednesday’s annual meeting of the Masterton A. and P. Association, Sir William said that there was a big agitation at Homeabout the quantity of imported mutton and lamb. One of the main reasons for the agitation was the abnormal number of killings as the result of the dry season. Prices had consequently fallen. While he though the agitation would die down, he pointed out that Australia was increasing her output all the time. Later on New Zealand might have a job to hold her own and export all she could produce. It was all right at the present time. As the result of the facial eczema epidemic our exports would probably not show an increase over last year. “We are fairly safe this year,” he added, “but I would not like to say what will happen next year.”
