MILK IN SCHOOLS
Sir,—There is quite a lot of talk going on about the milk supply , to the schools, and the children rinsing the bottles out afterwards. There must be some bungling somewhere when the New Brighton schools have not received any milk since the schools were opened after the infantile paralysis outbreak. Part of last winter the milk was stopped in the schools. Is the same thing going to happen again? Who is responsible?— Yours, etc., J .1. May 10, 1943. [An officer of the Health Department said yesterday that the Nejw Brighton school#had received milk until they were closed for the infantile paralysis epidemic. Since then some schools in the district had not received milk because of insufficient motor transport, but the position had now been rectified, and supplies would be resumed as soon as the schools reopened. The milk was stopped in the schools last year because of a shortage, and the fact that the Army’s needs were given preference.]
