Fall In Meat Consumption
(N.Z. Press Association) WELLINGTON, Sept. 13. Industries and Commerce Department inquiries indicated that consumption of meat in the last two months had dropped about 10 per cent, the Minister of Industries and Commerce (Mr Marshall) said in Parliament today. There was no doubt that buyer resistance to increased meat prices was a factor in the fall in consumption, he said. Local prices were influenced by the good export prices now being received for New Zealand meat.
