THIRD SHIPMENT TO GERMANY LONDON MARKET TRENDS. SHORTAGE OB- ENGLISH- CHEESE lo.'i'ON, Jan. 15. The third shipment of Ne>v Zealand blitter from England to Germany this mason will he made next week. The Shaw, Savill and Albion,' motor-ship waipawa, which has been unloading at London, will proceed to Hamburg to .•iseharge> 20,000 cases ..of . butter. In /the. case of the two previous consignments, it was, necessary .to. tranship, tae-but-ter to other vessels, but the present, shipment will' make the. complete journey from. New Zea.land to Germany, in the Waipawa. , Although Toaley street merchants do not consider the shipments to Germany have been large, or frequent enough to have a very great effect-on the English market, they consider they have at least been a factor in. maintaining prices. The fact that-stocks in London are light and that less butter is arriving from the. Continent-has also had an influence in preventing a. sharp decline. " Another important is the surprising manner in which the consumers have returned to butter since the drop .from peak retail prices. It was generally thought that prices would have to be reduced - to - a very low level to win consumers back, after the swing to margarine toward the end of last year. Yetvwithout any reduction below economic figures consumption has returned to within about 10 per cent of. the peak quantity. That this has been possible with a retail price in the region of Is 3d is so unusual that it can only be. taken, as an indication of a very definite measure of roosperity among the people, as a whole. . _ The increase in cheese prices during the week is attributed to a definite shortage.

Shipping delays have been partly responsible, but the chief reason is a, shortage of milk in Englano.. at the moment, which has cut c-own locallyDroduced supplies. The Milk Marketing Board’s policy, of requiring factories to use at least 50. per cent of milk for purposes other than butter , and cheese has been. a contributing factor in this reduction.
