Butter Industry Debate On NSW Price Claims And Imperial Profits
A Melbourne conference of butter factory managers heard NSW claim responsibility for higher surplus butter prices sold to the Imperial Government last year. G Wilson of the Federal Butter Committee disputed that, citing a London Ministry letter noting negotiations occurred without state government representation. The Imperial Government signals a profit around £19 per ton on Australian butter shipped to Britain, with farmers set to gain over £600,000 overall, distributed across the Commonwealth. The Federal Butter Committee will allocate returns for the year to 16 June 1918, subject to final year figures, while Britain’s stance on profits and future shipments remains cautious.

Law on Newspaper Subscriptions and Advertisers Rules
The article states subscribers and advertisers who do not express notice to the contrary are considered continuing. Publishers may send past due copies until arrears are paid. If papers are not taken from the office, subscribers are responsible until settled. Moving without notice makes one responsible for remaining issues. Paying in advance requires notice to cease. Not taking a newspaper is prima facie evidence of fraud. Any user of a received newspaper is legally a subscriber.
