F. Milner, Headmaster of Waitaki Boys’ High School, Now Zealand, Vice-President of the League of Nations Union, who represented the Dominion at the Education Conference at Vancouver, and toured North American continent and England, said on arrival at Fremantle by tile Orsova that the outstanding impression of his travels was the commercial penetration of the world by the* I nited States. Her mass production had s Unrated 1 her home market especially in motor cars and a carefully tplanne.d offensive; was now being made by manufacturers in South America, India, and Russia especially in Ukraine where America was represented by a group of professors and economists who practically had sole control, and large quantities of American machinery hid been introduced One order alone amounted to thirty million, clolars worth of farm implements. This, Milner considered, might affect Australia and New Zealand Iconsiderably. as under such direction, Russia would quickly become a strong factor in wheat markets. Milner suggested that Australian and New Zealand agriculturists should become associated with the Cambridge School of Research whose work in improving grass lands, poultry “raising, wheat and other directions already had had a great influence in English agricultural practice.
