PAYMENT FOR CHEESE
PROTEST AGAINST MINISTER’S DECISION. DAIRY BOARD WARD MEETING. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) PALMERSTON N., March 7. A motion protesting against the decision of the Minister of Marketing, Mr. Nash, regarding the non-payment of an amount additional to the 2d differential price for butterfat used for cheese, and asking him to implement his previous unconditional promise that the payment would be made, was carried at a meeting of representatives of the New Zealand Dairy Board’s central ward held in Palmerston North today. Mr A. Linton (Wairarapa) board member for the ward, presided, and among the attendance of about 40 were Messrs W. E. Hale, chairman of the board; C. M. Hume, herd recording supervisor; J. Ward, of the Government Forestry Service; and J. Loughnan, in charge of the butter-box section of the board’s activities. Advice that the Government would not be justified in making a further payment for cheese for the 1937-38 season was contained in a letter from the Minister to Mr. Hale, and the communication was read to the meeting, which considered that the decision of the Minister amounted to breaking a definite promise to the cheese-making industry.
