(By telegraph—Press ..Assn.— Copyright.
SIDNEY, May 25.
Mr. E. R. Knox, chairman, addressing the deferred half-yearly meeting of the Colonial -Sugar Refining Company, said Australia's export quota of 400,000 tons of sugar fixed by the recent international agreement could be regarded as satisfactory. It also was very gratifying that the British Government would maintain' the existing preference on Empire sugar for the period of the-agreement, five years. Mr. Knox added that the total output of raw- sugar from all the Australian mills was 756,000 tons, and from the company's seven mills the yield was 67,900 tons —a record in each case.
The Fiji output was also a record of 149,300 tons.
