EMPLOYED WASHING EGGS
Investigations had disclosed that a Rangiora firm had been paying an employee £5 15/ a week to wash eggs to eliminate the wastage caused through indifferent handling was a statement made by Mr. J. W. McConnon, officer in charge of the egg marketing section of the Internal Marketing Division. Such a position, he said, could be eliminated if the producers gave the eggs a little attention when they were gathered. In times like the present, when labour conditions were becoming acute, it should not be necessary for a firm to spend time and money on what could have been made an unnecessary service.
