AUCKLAND’S MILK SUPPLY
DISTRIBUTION and sale. LOCAL BODY CONTROL URGEI Auckland, Mar. 15. A deputation to the Mayor of Auckland to-day requested that the City Council discuss with all other interested local bodies the advisability of local bodies controlling the distribution and sale of milk in Auckland and suburbs. The delegation was represented by trade unionists, including milk roundsmen, a Labour M.P., and a member of the British Medical Association.
Reference was made to the present milk war, and it was asserted that distribution methods generally were unsatisfactory and that the Arbitration Court award war being evaded. The Mayor promised to recommend to the City Council that an investigation be made. He made it clear that the Council could not at this time ask the ratepayers to spend a large sum such as Wellington had spent on it* municipal supply system.
