AN EXPERT'S REPORT,
(Received 10.5 a.m.) Sydney, August 13
The report of Mr Burrell, American expert, which has been tabled in the Assembly, recommends, in order to inaugurate the system of bulk-handl-ing of wheat on an economic basis, that one terminal elevator be built at Sydney, and one at Newcastle. The cost with rolling stock and belt galleries would be half a million. If twenty-five additional elevators were erected in the country, the cost would be increased by £.'500,000. Mr Burrell adds: "New South Wales wheat is superior in quality to the United States and Canadian."
