Lief The Seller Beware

Consumers who are working for
honest weights and measures in their
communities should take a tip from
New York's enforcement officials.
Consumers need to know what
their rights are, and what to do if
they suspect their rights r being
violated. New York City's Weights
and Measures Bureau chief tells
them. Over the municipal broad
casting station, every Saturday
morning from 8:15 to $3.50, he takes
up on aspect of the weights and
measures problem.
First time it was a general intro
duction to the consumers stake in
weights and measures enforcement.
Coal was the second subject, and
specific information was given coal
buyers so they could make sure they
yer getting every ton they paid for.
