BREAD PRICE-WAR
Under-weight Bread 3 SEVERAL BAKERS FINED By Telegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, June 15. “From statements made by the master bakers it seems that the price-cutting competition which is going on in Christchurch has resolved itself into a struggle to see how much they can get out of a sack of flour,” stated an officer of the Labour Department at the Magistrate’s Court, when three bakers were charged with delivering short-weight bread. Defendants were William Henry Beaumont, William Robert Jennings, and Louise Adam Woodward. Beaumont and Jennings were convicted and fined £4 and costs. The charge against Woodward was dismissed.
