WEEKI.MtTUX, .Nov. z.s. "Everywhere I have gone people have been askingme ' when are we going to get your wonderful herriugs again ." " said Air. Frederick Sullivan, representative of a well known British firm which does a big business in canned Scottisli lierrings, in- an interview in "Wellington, Yet tisli was the onlv food in Britain of which there was a glut and which was available all the vear round in shops. The food situation in Britain was grim, Air. Sullivan said, and if the British canned fisli in ^lustrv could send say 1000 tons of can ned ilsh into tliis countrv, it would be reasonable to assume that New Zealand people would consume that. much less meat and so much more nieat could be sent to Britain. "Thev only get ls 2d worth of meai weekly — that is about as niueh as you get 011 your plate at one meal in an hotel here," he kdded. Food pareels did more toward relieving the mono tony oi' diet than the saving of rationed food coupons, Mr. Bnllivan said.
