BAKING TRADE
GROWING DIFFICULTY
PRODUCTION COSTS RISING
(Bj, Telegraph—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, This Day,
The statement that the bakers were being squeezed between the price of bread, which was being held steady, and costs, which were rising, was made in the annual report of the Auckland Master Bakers today.
The report stated that the industry was approaching the point' where it would be impossible to earn a reasonable return on the capital invested.
Mr. C. Cowan, president, said that holiday baking by those who did not employ labour was another problem which was causing serious concern, and steps would have to be taken to remedy the injustice.
