MILK LICENSE REFUSED
COUNCIL’S ACTION UPHELD. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Sept. 10. Holding that the Wellington City Council had discretionary power, Mr E. Page, S.M., in a reserved judgment upheld its action in refusing to grant Gilbert Hamilton MeMeeking, a nearby farmer, a renewal of a license to vend milk in the citv.
The magistrate .said that, having regard to the past record of appellant, he was of the opinion that the council acted rightly. The refusal of the council to grant MeMeeking a license did not' mean that he would have no market for his milk. He could sell the whole of the milk to the Wellington Dairy Farmers’ Co-operative Association, the body from which substantially the whole of the City Corporation milk supply was drawn. Under that method the milk from every supplier was tested separately every day.
