CONDITION MODERATE
NEW ZEALAND CHILLED BEEF
ARRIVAL IN LONDON
(Deceived' March 16, 11 a.m.)
LONDON, March 15.
The Port Fairy's New Zealand chilled beef arrived in moderate condition. Some of the quarters were good, but many w.ero affected with black mould, necessitating considerable trimming before they would be saleable. Australian and Argentine experts were much interested in the consignment. They considered'the quality admirable, but stated that lack of experience was apparently responsible for tho faulty condition,, despite the fact that it occupied less time in- transit that the Port Fairy's last Sydney shipment, which was satisfactory. From this it is deduced thai the handling at tho source and mot the timo in transit is the vital factor.
A South African shipment of chilled beef arrived simultaneously. The quality of the beef was moderate, but the consignment carried well.
