The army authorities have withdrawn their major demands for changes in the construction of the Owen sub-machine-gun. This was the outcome of a conference called by the Minister for the Army, Mr Forde, to settle the differences ’ of opinion between the Army, on the one side, and the inventor and manufacturers on the other. A few minor changes, the advantages of which were conceded by Mr Owen, will be discussed with Army experts and manufacturers today and full production is expected at an early date.
