RUSH FOR FOOTWEAR
Unfounded Rumours (P.A.) ' AUCKLAND, October 16. Rumours entirely unfounded are in circulation in Auckland and are causing people to rush to buy footwear, using up “M” coupons which they may be sorry later to have parted with. The unecessarily false notions behind this buying rush appear to be that any unused balance of “M” coupons in the present books will shortly cease to be redeemable and that people are to be restricted to two pail’s of footwear a year. There is no truth in either, but these are the same species of damaging rumours as were spread in Wellington some weeks ago and caused serious disorganization in the retail footwear trade there.
