Major Lloydasked the Minister of Food if he is aware of the difficulties caused throughout the country to bakers through the recent increase by his Department of 25 per cent. in manufacturing fats, while retail prices are still controlled; and if he will, under the circumstances, give immediate relief to the bakers.
§ Mr. WebbMost cakes are sold today below the maximum retail prices. Bakers should therefore experience little difficulty in making any necessary price adjustments to meet the increased cost of fats.
