DISCHARGING MEAT CARGOES.
Ac the resulti of investigations- into the unloading and handling of frozen meat in til-eat ±>ritain, the New Zealand Meat Producers' Board has now appointed an inspector or supervisor to watcn the unloading of each vessel. The t . British Incorporated Society of Meat Importers some time ago recommended to the board that it was very essential that an inspector should be present on the wharf to watch the interests of ' not only the. importers but also the shippers. Not only will this supervisor watch tue handling of meat generally, but he will also inspect the general condition of each shipment on arrival and report to the board. The London office of the New Zealand Meat Producers' Board has now also made arrangements with the Salvage Association and the importers of fr»;en meat for the board's inspector to attend every survey for damaup ot New Zealand meat, and thus be in a position to see the extent of the damage and also to locate, if possible, where the damage occurred. Since they board appointed local supervisors, to watch the handling and loadIng at this end there has been a very marked improvement, and the board anticipates similar results at the other end.
