THE CHRISTCHURCH SCARE.
Press Association. Wellington, July 24. Interviewed this evening, Mr C, J, Reakes, acting Chief Veterinarian in the Department of Agriculture, said he was astonished to find such serious statements as had been made about Sockburn abatoir grounded on such flimsy evidence. He would like to know what tangible objection could bo raised to the hanging of dressed carcases in the killing apartment. Then, about tho congealed blood, it had to be remembered that when work was in active progress .a slaughterhouse could not be as presentable as a drawingroom. When he last visited the abattoir six weeks ago the place was thoroughly clean and well kept. He was amazed at such alarmist statements being put into circulation.
