2 PART V. The following conclusion was unanimously agreed to:— (1) That the indiscriminate preservation of game and the progress of native and non-native agriculture could not go hand in hand. (2) That evidence had been given to the Conference which showed that in Tanganyika, and possibly other, parts of Africa, indiscriminate game preservation was at the present time intensifying the difficulties of the European settler and restricting the progress of agriculture; and, further, that it had the effect of so segregating the native that his lands were becoming exhausted and a condition was arising leading to his demoralisation and preventing his natural rate of increase. CHAPTER VI, GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF MARKETING. Mr. KOCH read the notes* which had been submitted by the Chiet of the Division of Agricultural Economics of the Union of South Africa (referred to in Agenda as T.C.(C)Ag.19). The CHAIRMAN (Mr. Holm) stated that he would like to put on record their appreciation of the interesting note which had just been read, which indicated the wide scope of the Division of Economics in South Africa. Mr. SIMPSON said that in Uganda the only commodity in regard to which they had strict marketing regulations was cotton. With cotton they exercised a very strict control and only allowed it to be bought by licence and at certain specified places. By this means it was possible for any individual producer to market his own cotton and obtain his money for it. This method had been of great benefit in excluding many of the unnecessary middlemen. Mr. KIRBY stated that there were three main systems of auction markets for produce in Tanganyika :— (1) Markets, such as that at Morogoro, where only general produce was sold, and deliveries were sold by auction on the previous day: this method eliminated the small speculator. (2) Markets which handled domestic products only, and where each native brought his own produce to the auctioneer and paid a small fee to the Market Master. Special regulations were enforced as a precaution against fraud. *, Bulk Marketing. In this case truck loads were put up for auction, and the whole transaction was under the supervision of the Market Master, under the Administration, natives being paid for their quantities delivered, according to the successful bid. * For text of these notes see Appendix.
