NO FRUIT RING.
PROTEST FROM AUCKLAND. (by TELEGRAPH PRESS ASSOCIATION .) AUCKLAND, July 30. A strongly worded protest against the allegation of Sir Maui Pomare (Minister for Health) regarding the existence of a fruit “ring,” has been sent to the Premier (Mr. W. F. Massey) by the Auckland Fruit Importers’ Association. It expresses resentment against Sir Maui's statement to the effect that fruit was too expensive owing to its scarcity and the fruit “ring.”
The association asks the Premier to either make the Minister withdraw his accusation or withdraw it with a suitable apology.
