Mr Isitt, in the House of Representatives on Thursday, 2nd October, said: “He did not approve of the recommendations of the Industries Committee regarding the fostering of grape-growing for wine production. He produced figures to show that the culture of grapes for wine-growing in California was not comparable in profit with the culture of 1 grapes for dessert use or for raisins. He said that the Industries Committee had beefi sadly ‘taken in.’ In Australia the wine shops wore the most disreputable of the liquor selling places in the country. In South Australia they worked deplorable harm among the .young people.”*
