Delegates from Lower Hunter and Worcester District Council of the PPU met in Gloucester to question whether the Costs Committee had correctly set butter price at 2/1 before a rise to 2/2.

Executive criticised at PPU meeting over banking issue

The Lower Hunter and Gloucester District Council of the Primary Producers Union met in Gloucester on Tuesday and blamed the General President for ruling out of order a discussion on the nationalisation of banks. G V Ralston led a move arguing the policy was political and urged debate despite the ruling. The motion was carried, with delegates warning the issue could provoke wider social conflict among some 16,000 members.
