Big Wheat Bags To Stay
Flourmillers could not pack flour in smaller bags to suit grocers and housewives because the Price Tribunal would not allow a higher profit to cover the extra work involved, said speakers at the annual meeting of the New Zealand Flourmillers’ Society in Christchurch yesterday. They had received a letter from the New Zealand Master Grocers’ Federation asking them* to pack flour in small quantities. It was decided to write to the federation telling them that flour was heavily subsidised and that millers were not to blame.
