PRODUCE PRICES
RESOLUTION BY TAURANGA FARMERS. DEMANDS ON GOVERNMENT. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) TAURANGA. This Day. A meeting of farmers in the TownHall here on Saturday passed resolutions calling upon the Government to pay a price to enable farmers to increase production; also demanding that the Government give an assurance that the position of the farmer today, due to the war. will not be used to determine his position when the war ceases; also urging the Farmers’ Union executive to take any action considered necessary to correct the existing state of affairs of the primary producer not later than the end of February, and that the Government be asked to fulfil its election pledge that the farmer would be measured by the same yard stick as others. The resolution also pledged support to the executive of the Farmers' Union in any action it saw fit to take to secure a price which would enable the farmer to increase production and so help win the war.
