PREFERENCE RESENTED CHRISTCHURCH BUTCHERS (Pit Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, this day.

A statement made officially by the executive after the meeting was that the singling out of Auckland for preferential treatment most unjust when the position of the butchering trade in other districts was more serious. “Unless the tribunal’s decision for other parts of the Dominion is released immediately, the position, already acute, will become desperate,” the statement continued.
