INDUSTRIAL WORKERS
AS MIGRANTS FROM BRITAIN DESIRED BY AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT. DEPARTMENTAL COMMITTEE TO REPORT . (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.10 a.m.) CANBERRA, This Day. The Australian Government wishes to arrange for the post-war immigration of British industrial workers. The Federal Prime Minister (Mr Curtin) has announced the appointment of a departmental committee to report on all aspects of migration from Britain. This appointment represents a departure from the traditional Labour policy which has always opposed immigration. It foreshadows a vigorous immigration scheme to begin as soon as the war ends. The committee has not been asked to report on migration from any country but Britain. Political commentators say the appointment of the committee indicates the sweeping nature of the policy changes to be discussed at the Federal Labour Party conference in December.
