BARGAINING WEAPON
NFW ZEALAND'S TRADE POLICY.
OPINION OF PROFESSOR BELSHAW.
By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. SYDNEY. January 10.
Professor Belshaw. of Auckland University. who arrived at Sydney today for the Science Congress at Canberra, stated that New Zealand and her new import licensing policy possessed a powerful weapon with which to bargain with her sister Dominions and to ensure the growth of her home industries.
Though the aim undoubtedly was to give preference to Britain, it was most unlikely that Australia would receive the same treatment, and she would probably have to negotiate in order to maintain her market in New Zealand. The people most concerned or perturbed, he said, were importers and farmers, the latter fearing an increase in costs.
