Regarding the use by bakers of iodised salt, in place of common salt, in the manufacture of bread, to which reference was made by a correspondent, signing himself "Plain Bill, whose letter appeared in Monday's issue, Dr. T. Fletcher Telford, Medical Officer of Health, told a reporter that the use by bakers of iodised salt is not compulsory, but optional. The baker, from a commercial point of view, is going to advertise the fact that he is using iodised salt, which adds to the cost of making the bread, in order to get the extra sale to those people who fancy this kind of bread In view of this, Dr. Telford considered that it was not compulsory on "Plain Bill,'' and those who think with him to buy bread in the preparation of which iodised salt has been used.
