GREAT BLOW
TO AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIES
IF PREFERENCE GOES STATEMENT 15V PREMIERS ■ (United Preas Annooiatfon-By Elaotrw Telegraph—Copyright) SYDNEY, 13th July. The Prime Minister (Mr Bruce) and the Queensland Premier (Mr Moore) communicated to London their belief that the abolition of preferences as proposed by Mr Snowdeu would be a great blow to Australian industries. The loss to the Australian sugar and dried fruits industries if the proposal was carried out was estimated at £850,000. OTTAWA, 13th July. In the absence of the Minister of Finance, Mr Rdbb, it is improbable that Canada will take immediate action in respect to the pronouncement of Mr Snowden against Empire preferential tariffs. The matter may be discussed when Cabinet meets next week, however.
