BLACK MARKETING
RAMPANT IN AUSTRALIA. FURTHER REPRESSIVE ACTION PROPOSED. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) SYDNEY, October 7. Recommendations for checking black marketing in goods are contained in a report by the Australian Rationing Commission. They include the establishment of a Commonwealth Court to deal solely with offences against the National Security Regulations. “Black marketing and illicit profiteering,” says the “Sydney Morning Herald” in an editorial are evils so rampant today that the public, harassed by inescapable commodity shortages and bilked in many directions by unscrupulous traders, is being forced in many cases by sheer compulsion of competitive demands to acquiesce in practices of barefaced illegality.”
