Cheap butter bids sting Australian producers
Nowra resident Mr C D Fraser who arrived from England this week says Australian butter sales to England fell due to competition from cheap Russian butter. He notes butter landed at 43d per lb and retailed at 5d, with Australian shipments down 100000 cases while Russian exports rose 250000 cases. Fraser accuses Australian representatives of failing to act and claims butter was mixed with inferior goods.
