THE PROBLEM IN AUSTRALIA. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Melbourne. Nov. IS. Mr. W. M. Hughes (the Federal Prime Minister), at a big meeting, explained the referendum proposals, which were intended for us,e only, in allaying industrial unrest and dealing with profiteering. He raid _that a convention at which the States would be represented would be held next year to consider the revision of the constitution. His statement that so-called Labor people opposed the proposals led to continued interruptions. Mr. Hushes said he asked the people of Australia to give him power to deal with profiteering and give a man a fair wage; if they would not do so they could get someone else to lead them.— Aus.-N.Z.
