   come into force on the 26th day of August 1955.
2. (1) Price Order No. 1587* is hereby revoked.
   (2) The revocation of the said Order shall not affect the liability
   of any person for any offence in relation thereto committed before
   the coming into force of this Order.
   APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER
3. This Order applies with respect to all cocoa, except “Van
   Houten's” sold in New Zealand.
   FIXING MAXIMUM PRICES OF COCOA TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES
   Wholesalers' Prices
4. (1) Subject to the following provisions of this clause, the maxi-
   mum price that may be charged or received by any wholesaler (which
   term in this order shall be deemed to include a manufacturer selling
   to a retailer) for any cocoa to which this Order applies shall be the
   appropriate price set out in the Schedule hereto.
   (2) The prices fixed by the foregoing provisions of this clause are
   fixed subject to the continuance of the practice in the cocoa trade
   with respect to cash and other discounts and with respect to freight
   arrangements existing immediately prior to the coming into force
   of this Order.
   Retailers' Prices
5. (1) Subject to the following provisions of this clause, the maxi-
   mum price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any
   cocoa to which this Order applies shall be the appropriate price set
   out in the Schedule hereto.

   signment of cocoa or may relate generally to all cocoa to which this
   Order applies sold by the wholesaler or retailer while the approval
