R. Muir, last week granted an application by George White (Dagenham), Ltd., to carry newsprint for Odhams Press, Ltd., and to convert two vehicles and trailers from contract A to A-licensed operation.
The original application to transfer four vehicles and three trailers was amended because, said Mr. J. C. Yorke (for White), the work now being done by the four could adequately be done by two if they were on open A licence. This amendment satisfied objections from British Road Services.
Mr. Yorke said that the newsprint works had not gone down over the past two years, but the amount of contract work in general had lessened and as a result there was inefficiency. Odhams, he said, had been taken over by the Daily IS/lift:or Group at the end of 1960.
Mr. Graham White, a director of George White, said they had been carrying for Odhams on contract since 1942. In a letter this year they had been asked to transfer their vehicles to open A licence for the benefit of the Daily Mirror Group. Contract business for Odhams had fallen front £11,000 in 1961 to £8,000 in 1962.
Granting the application, Mr. Muir agreed to the declared user of newspapers, paper, margarine . and foodstuffs in London and surrounding districts.
