  4. Except in pursuance of a permit issued in that behalf by the Wheat Controller, it shall not be lawful for any flour-miller to deliver or be concerned in the delivery of flour in pursuance of any contract of purchase whether made before or after the coming into operation of these regulations, save that no such permit shall be required for the delivery of flour to a baker for the purpose of his business as such in quantities not exceeding five tons in the aggregate within any period of seven days.
  5. Save in pursuance of a permit issued in that behalf by the Wheat Controller, it shall not be lawful for any baker to receive whether from the same or from different sellers a larger aggregate quantity of flour than five tons in any period of seven days in pursuance of any contract or contracts of purchase made either before or after the coming into operation of these regulations.
