MILK IN SCHOOLS
WEST COAST SCHEME DIFFIC U LTIES OV.ERCOM E It is expected that plans will shortly be made for supplying milk to schoolchildren, not in Greymouth, but throughout the district from Ross to Reefton. Negotiations between the Greymouth milk-in-schools committee and vendors broke down early last year, due largely to a shortage of milk and the Government requirements as to the preparation and bottling of 'the milk. Under the new scheme the milk will be bottled by a Christchurch company and delivered to the West Coast in a specially-cooled railway van. Final details of this plan are now being worked out. It only remains for 'the schools concerned to undertake the handling of the milk when it arrives on the West Coast. A meeting of representatives of the schools concerned will be called shortly.
