SATURDAY TRADING
BARBER SEEKS, PERMISSION APPLICATION REFUSED BY COURT (P.A.) AUCKLAND, Aug. 8. Permission for exemption from the Shops and Offices Act so that he could open for business on Saturdays was sought by Ivan Tolich, a hairdresser, in the Magistrate’s Court to-day He submitted that many of his regular customers were workers, and were unable to get their hair cut except on Saturdays. His loss through Saturday closing amounted to £1 a week, and the application was made to preserve his business. For the Auckland Tobacconists and Hairdressers’ Association, it was submitted that the granting of Tolich’s application would upset the ideas and desires of other hairdressers, who would be forced to make similar applications. Refusing the application, Mr L. G. H. Sinclair, S.M., emphasised that the greatest public interest was that there should be fair play in the trade.
