PURE MILK.
MUNICIPAL CANDIDATES BEING CIRCULARISED. * TBS TELEGRAPH — SPECIAL TO XHJ! POST.) DUNEDIN, This Day. Municipal candidates are being circularised by the Otago Trades and Labour Council to ascertain whether they are in favour of tho Dunedin City Council establishing a milk-supply depot. The letter of tho secretary (Mr. R. Breen) states that "pure milk at the lowest possible price is absolutely necessary, but such is impossible under present conditions. The price of milk, like flour and bread, is fixed by the associations, who, iv our opinion, are only actuateS by one desire — to make profits — and all the consumer has to do is to pay. or go without. The Trades and Labour Council are firmly convinced that if the municipality took in hand the supplying of milk to householders, no possible injury could be done to the dairymen, but a great benefit would be conferred upon the whole of the people of Dunedin."
