[There will have to be a moral and spiritual reforma­ tion qqual to the great opportunity whlcq will be offered; For that reason,.,so far as this parish Is con- cernear-and this ■ I s ' my considered opinion after 11 yekfs’ experlencei— you cannot ppsslblyi meet that need with- a one-man ^tafl.

YOUR MILK DEUVERY.


CHOICE OF SUPPLIER t o BE STOPPED. .


CLITHEROE PROPOSALS The first step towards, the


rationalisation of ihllk deliveries in CUtheroe was .taken'on.Tues-


: day evening, when the milk rc- ' taUers of thcLborough met at the ' Town Hall to hear the scheme


, explained bjf' the Food Executive Officer '(Mr.I G. HetheringtOn)


Mr. J . Green, J.P„ chairman of


the Food Control Committee, pres­ ided,! and afterwards a committee


, comprising five producer-retailers' and two dairymen was elected to formulate a suitable scheme for CUtheroe. Meipbers of the: com^ mitte'e: are Messrs. ,R. Cowman,, S. Wood.' A. E. Stories, G. W. Bargh, R. L.[Parker, J ; Park and A. W. Gardhkr;., / : i


|


', After explalrilng that the' scheme applies only to people who deliver milk arid, not td; those who sell It .over the counter at a shopi Mr. Hethefington pointed put that the purpose of/ the meeting was 'Iwot fold : ['ito explain the Ministry of Food’s 'policy, and to' provide for the preparation of a scheme which would Include the' formation of a war-time . association of 'which every person selling milk In the borough must become a menlber. This would be a condition; of the granting of fresh licences ior the renewal of existing licences.


ECONOMY OF MAN POWER.


. .The Ministry’s policy was. to secure a dkUy delivery-oririilk with maximum economy in man-power and transport, and It affected all persons engaged In the retail dell-' very df mUk, whether producer- retailers; private traders or cO-op- eratlve I societies. After consulta­ tion with' members of the trade, the Minister had decided ■ that econdinles would be best effected by ensuring that every pemori deli­ vering [mUk.'ShouId serve as many customers as possible, during, the course [[if his round; [


Milk TCtailers themselves were required to prepara a suitable;


' August. . [


, scheme arid td submit it to the Miriistry of Food before the 31st


•


; Under the new arrangements it was, of course, necessary to suspend the present arrangements whereby customers could choose their own milkman and, [ again, once the scheme was settled by a majority^ vote, the -minority of dissentients would have to fall Into line. I t was Important to remember, however, that the : rationalisation scheme was Intended purely arid sliriply as a xwar-tlme measure and, as soon as possible kfter the war. It would be necessary for arrangements to be inade'to harid back to the per­ sons coricerri'ed 'their. original cus­ tomers,! or an equivalent In gallon- age, ;ori the ' termination of the scheme; -. :■


[ , !


In conclusion; Mr. Hetherington, pointed! out that the'Ministry had expressly stated that' In any area where no scheme Is prepared and submitted, the Ministry will Itself Investigate Ideal conditions and producq a scheme for application In the area.
