FROZEN MEAT.
A QUESTION IN PARLIAMENT. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. London, December 3. In the House of Commons, Mr. Denniss (Unionist member for Oldham) asked Mr. Buxton whether his attention had been called to the distribution of frozen meat. He alleged it was covered with very thin canvas and sacking and put on filthy floors in waggons. He gaid it lay for hours on the platforms of stations, where dogs roamed. He asked whether legislation would be introduced, requiring meat to be carried only in special vans, that it be suspended from hooks, and not allowed to touch the ground. Mr. Buxton said the Board of Trade had not heard of these matters, and he promised that enquiries would be made.
