Outside Parliament several unknown quantities remain. The freezing industry dispute could develop into something nasty, with Mr Walsh decreeing an export ban while talks are still in the conciliation stage. On the other side a speaker at the recent South Island Federated Farmers meeting called for a "showdown" with the unions. This sort of talk, started by the shipping companies and echoed by some of the dumber members of the National Party, preceded the 1951 waterfront strike, and no one wants a repetition of that.
