ALLOCATION OF SARDINES
1 Retail Grocers To Do Their Best As a result of a number of complaints from small retail grocers concerning the allocation of stocks of sardines which are now said to be available, the Food and Rationing Controller was asked yesterday to explain the Internal Marketing Division’s policy on the matter. The controller said that a quantity of sardines, which had been held in reserve against an emergency, had now been released, as it was considered the emergency had passed. The total quantity released was not sufficient for every person in the Dominion to get one tin, and consequently it! had been decided, so.,that each retail grocer should get a fair share, to allocate the sardines on the basis of sugar customers. It had been left to the retail . grocers to share out. the sardines among their customers as best they could.
