= Potato dumping. writes LONDON
correspondent, is the latest accusation
made against Germany by t2ltt re-
formers who fCr some time nave Dcen
clamoring for the imposition OF hlghef
duties against imports from Germany.
Not long ago British farmers were
getting from c 10 to &1S ton Tor then
potatoes. Now tl'cy find them q drug
i'm the market at prices as low as G2'
"The explanation of this I; IL, says
one authority, "is wholesale dumping
by Gernan and Dutch growers. The
German government, before and dur
ing the war, stimulated the growth OF
potatoes in order to provide reserve
food and also for the distillation of al
cohol. The ovcrplus has been thrown
on the British market, the only one
which will admit il without heavy du-
ties, and it has been sold for what II
will fetch. AS result the unfortu-
nate British farmer is being reduced
to something very near despair, and in
some cases il refusing TO market his
crop"

of the Highland Park plant after turn
