DAIRY INDUSTRY
COMPANY CHAIRMAN’S SUGGESTION. TRANSFER OF SIX MILLIONS FROM PUBLIC WORKS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) HAMILTON, October 30. The suggestion that £6,000,000 be diverted from this year’s public works expenditure to assist the dairying industry to give increased production Mr Parlane said. If better wages were offered many men now on public works would probably return to the farms. “The way we are going, production must decrease,” he said. “In the last two years it has dropped by 19 per cent, and production in September was 30 per cent lower than three years ago.” Mr Parlane discounted a suggestion that some farmers were sitting back and not making full use of their land.
