POOL NOT DESIRED BY NEW ZEALAND DAIRY INTERESTS Expect That Market For Products May Improve Auckland, N.Z.--The experience of the Canadian Wheat Pool and sim- ilar experiments in other parts of the world has been sufficient to convince New Zealand dairy interests that ar- tificial methods of regulating demand should not L. adopted in connection with their own marketing problems. The Dairy Produce Exporters As- sociation has received from the Dairy Produce Importers Association in London advices to the effect that ad- vertising should be adopted as the surest means of increasing sales, A tax on the foreign foodstuffs is also being urged. Dairy producers are suffering at present from low prices, The early production of New Zealand and the greatly increased output of Australia led to a drastic fall iu retail quota- tions in the British Isles to bring the demand into line with supply, This is still taking place, and, notwith- standing the large increase anticipat- ed from Neiv Zealand owing to the diversion of butter formerly going to Canada, and the enormously increas- ed production of Australia, the as- sociation expeéts a gradual recovery of the market. A special committeg has given con- sideration to the question of price- fixing and pegging and "in view of the unfavorable experience of the Canadian Wheat Pool, the Irish hut- ter control and the Scottish Milk Pool," the committe is convinced that any artificial interference with the open market would accentuate ra- ther than help the present position.

C. -- Competition from Soviet Russia in the wooden door trade is being keenly felt in that branch of British Columbia's lumber industry. Particularly is this competition apparent in the British Isles where for the first time Ruse sian-made doors are making severe inroads at the 'expense of the Cana- dian product. A large number of ready-made doors are said to be waiting in Rus- sian ports on the Baltic for shipment to the United Kingdom early in the spring at prices which Canadians will be unable to meet. Not only will these Russian doors endersell Cana- dian doors, but they will also displace doors from Sweden, which for many years has been one of the chief source of supply for that market. A British syndicate is reported to have made a deal with large interest engaged in the production of wooder doors in Russia, arranging to take their entire output in 1931 and 1932 On the strength of this agreement, it is said, the Russian factories have been geared to greatly increased pro duction so that the prospect of hold. ing its own in the United Kingdom would appear to be rather slim for the British Columbia door trade.
