AUSTRALIAN MANUFACTURES
A SHORTAGE OF LABOR. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Sydney, August 29. At the annual meeting of the Chamber of Manufacturers the president, Mr. Wunderlich, stated that last year's manufacturers in New South Wales expended £7,000,000 more than in the previous year. The total output was nearly £50,000,000. The shortage of labor was obvious and all manufacturers wereJooking for good tradesmen. Though not a Laborite, he could not help admiring the administrative capability of the State Ministry. They must give the Government due credit. The imports frightened some people, but in the present state of prosperity he did not see much cause for fright. People were getting very extravagant, and they were prepared to pay high prices.
