A number of men claiming to represent the New
Territory farmers asked the District Officer to meet them and listen to some charges which they wished to bring against the Government Vegetable Marketing Scheme.

Keen, agreed to meet them and asked the Superintendent of Agriculture to be present to reply to them.
