Charge of Selling Polluted Bread Is Dismissed
AUCKLAND, August 13 Holding that Mathieson Parkes Ltd., had taken all reasonable steps to ensure that their bread was not contaminated, Mr F. H. Levien, S.M., in the Police Court to-day dismissed two charges against the company of selling food unfit for human consumption The Magistrate will later give his decision on a third charge of permitting bread to become liable to pollution. Mr Levien said to-day that at the hearing he thought there had been carelessness in not having a mesh which would have prevented the mouse skeleton found in the bread from going with the flour into the bread, but a visit to the bakehouse had shown there was no way a mouse could get through the mesh. The bakery was well set up and very modern.
