THE MILK SUPPLY
NO FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS VIEWS OF CORRESPONDENTS No new development was reported yesterday in connection with tho ?ui!k supply question. The report prepared by tho experts and published in Tun 1 joMiNiON oil Saturday has not yet gone before the City Council's Health Committee, and in tho meantime matters are at .-.a standstill. Tho Mayor (Mr. ,j. P. Luke) stated yesterday that no date for the noxt meeting of the committee had been fixed. A. supplier told a Dominion reporter yesterday that he could not believe ihe report of the experts was intended to be taken seriously. "Are we to understand that the wages bill at the clearing station, under the scheme put forward by the so-called experts, is to lie £126 per week, and that this charsre is to be imposed upon the suppliers? lie said. "If this is the case, then there is no shadow of doubt what will happen. The people of Wellington will have to find another set of suppliers or do without milk. My own impressjo;i is that the report need not lie regard.':! too seriously."
