Devine) told 1 tne No. 9 Transport L.censmg Authority 'Mr J. S. Hay-i wood) yesterday. The company ' Mr R. E. Wylie) was applying for an amendment to a continuous ; g -cds-service Lcence by the j addition of one vehicle i authority to carry its own i bread and allied goods, with, exemption from rail restric-i tian, from Christchurch to Waipara. The closing of the bakery ' at Wa.kari had greatly! increased the demand for his • company’s bread. Mr Devine I said. For many years a publie carrier with a special i truck had delivered bread in i North Canterbury for the I company. Now he was! unable to cope. Besides the i necessity for special trucks) there was a time factor involved. Storekeepers wanted i the bread by 8 a.m. each day I

( so that they could set out on, grocery deliveries. There ’ I were no public transport; i services which could fit in. i j The application was' granted.
