HAWKING OF MEAT.
Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, July 26. A by-law prohibiting the hawking of meat in the city is to be prepared by the Christchurch City Council. This decision was made by the council to-night on the recommendation of the abattoir and reserves committee, which considers that the sale of meat in this manner is not in the interest of public health. Cr. G. Manning said he would ask the committee to act cautiously and with discretion. It was of great convenience to housewives that they were able to buy meat at the door and, if any change was intended, he hoped that the public would be given adequate notice.
The acting-chairman of the committee (Cr. J. Guthrie) said that the committee fully realised the difficulties that would be involved in any decision to prohibit the hawking of meat, and very careful thought was being given to the matter. The report was adopted.
