SYDNEY’S BREAD
A HOLD Ul>
(Australian Press Association.)
(Received this day at '9.25 a.m) SYDNEY, August 6
The Lang Government is now in hot water, for giving a huge bread contract to Shadlers Limited. Shadlers were relying on master bakers supplying the bread, but the latter are boycotting the scheme .asserting the price is unpayable. Unemployed families are thus finding it difficult to obtain bread with dole coupons. The bread trade is so dislocated by the dispute that the master bakers have given notice of dismissal to five hundred carters and scores of operatives. The matter having been mentioned in Parliament, Mr iLang declared the people shall have bread, and threatens to take action against the millers for withholding supplies of flour.
