Opponents of ban on margarine argue for provincial juts
Ottawa October 7 margarine, once allowed postwar, is said to have harmed butter makers little. Senator Salter Hayden of Toronto argued margarine imports and production from 1917 to 1923 totaled 51.9 million pounds while butter output reached 4.7 billion pounds, suggesting margarine did little harm to the dairy industry. He urged that margarine be treated as an agricultural product under provincial jurisdiction, a view echoed by Quebec’s L. Beaulieu KC and government figures. The Senate motion to reference the matter to the Supreme Court was approved, with a ruling expected in about a month.
