Partial Sugar Price Rise Triggers Possible Boycott Hints
Melbourne reports a hint of a partial boycott if sugar prices rise. Mrs. G A Hain, acting president of the Home wives Association, told the Federal committee that housewives could manage with less sugar during jam season and questioned claims of increased production from price hikes. Vice-president Mrs. B Kelly warned higher prices would affect many essential items, noting a family uses about 2 pounds weekly. The inquiry chairman cited a 6d weekly wage impact for a 1d rise, while growers and mill owners pressed for an interim rise to cover rising costs before the government decision.
