RECENT BRITISH STRIKE
IRREGULARITY BY N.Z. DAIRY FIRM. LETTER FROM TOOLEY ST. (Per Press Association.) Wellington. June 9. The following; extract is taken from a letter dated May 4, received by the Wellington representativ- ! e.s of one of the largest dairy prodj ure firms in Tooley Street. London : j “It is rather peculiar that here. I whilst we have a strike, and all the big stores are pushing British goods, particularly for one week, and in face of the Government issuing an emergency order. the two combinations that tried to force prices during the oountry.'-s trouble were a well-known New Zealand brand named here— and the Australian Overseas Federation. Hew. cv'-r, an order was soon issued that prices must not lx raised and we presume that where they had charged more (hev had to reduce their invoice price or scud a credit note, but this sort of thing does not do New Zealand or Australian produce any good.”
