REPORT DENIED
AUSTRALIAN AND EASTERN SUPPLY COUNCIL. POSITION OF SIR B. STEVENS. CANBERRA, November 13. The Prime Minister, Mr Curtin, denied the report that the Federal Cabinet was recalling Sir Bertram Stevens. He said that no action would be taken in regard to Sir B. Stevens till receipt ’ of the report by Mr Beasley on the operations of the Eastern Group Supply Council, on which Sir Bertram is the Australian representative. An earlier report from Canberra stated:— The Federal Cabinet has decided to recall to Australia “for consultation,” Sir Bertram Stevens, Australian representative on the Eastern Supply 1 Council at Delhi, The Cabinet has also decided to ask the Minister of Supply, Mr Beasley, to obtain a report on the operations of the council. There is an impression in Canberra that Sir Bertram Stevens may remain in Australia. Some Labour members regard his appointment to Delhi as having been a political one.
