51 CLOCKS LOST
The chairman of the Canterbury Chamber of Commerce’s importers’ committee (Mr C. F. Whitty) last evening told the chamber that his firm had in the last week lost 51 clocks and 29 wall can openers from cargo. A - number of firms, he said, had lost clocks. The chamber will write to the London Chamber of
Commerce to ask about pillaging of cargoes in Britain. A member of the Lyttelton Harbour Board (Mr F. I. Sutton) told the chamber that unit and pallet cargo could help reduce pillage. Small cartons with stripped corners or corners slightly broken could be seen in goods sheds.
