SOMETIMES THROWN AWAY. .. STATEMENTS IN PARLIAMENT. )By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Soon after it met at 10.30 a.m. today, the House of Representatives went into Committee of Supply to consider the Estimates. Mr Polson and Mr Bodkin referred to the low price received for sheepskins, stating that farmers frequently cut off the wool and threw the skins away, which was a great waste.
The Minister of Finance (Mr Nash) said Britain would take all the wool we could sell, but did not want skins, and these were things which were not subject to control.
