Butter Price Increase Refused by Prices Commissioner

In a late month House statement Prime Minister Curtin outlined why the dairying industry’s bid for higher home prices on butter and cheese was rejected by the Prices Commissioner. The industry sought one penny per pound for butter and one halfpenny for cheese, arguing rising production costs since the war justify higher prices. Curtin noted industry profits had risen due to overseas prices and the home price rise, and the Prices Commissioner did not see a guaranteed improvement to conditions. A deputation then met the Commissioner, while Commonwealth Equalization Committee head Purcell argued war conditions spurred a higher price. The Prime Minister decided the Commissioner would re-examine the position in three months, not six.
