AGRICULTURAL PRICES. Memo. by Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries. Fat Cattle. Pigs.

21 Aug 1940

there is no home-grown counterpart, e.g. cattle cake, rice bran and maize, all of which are imported by the Ministry of Food or made from materials which themselves are imported by the Ministry of Food, should be stabilised. I propose also that they should be stablised at their pre August 1st level. 6. So far as the immediate future is concerned an announcement on these lines would mitigate to some considerable extent the unfortunate effects which I am certain will be produced by the publication of the schedule of reduced cattle prices proposed by the Minister of Food.
