The Hon. W. D. Stewart, iu an interview at Auckland, expressed tho view that New Zealand could watch with profit, the extension of the system of pools by tho primary producers of Australia. Pools in Australia operated in connection with wheat, moat, fruit-preserving, and other primary industries, .homo were operated by States and some by tho Federal Government, and some partly by both. The wheat pool had proved a very expansive undertaking for the Governments. The Federal Government guaranteed. 6s per bushel, and the State of New -South Wales added an extra 2s 6d, and in tho last year or two tho latter had incurred a loss of between £1,000,000 and £2,000,000. Opinion was divided as to whether pools should bo voluntary or compulsory; but it seemed dear that the principle of pooling agreements, whether under the guise of co-operation or some other scheme, was bound to spread, and tho effect should be carefully watched, not only in the interest of sound Government finance, but also in the interest of tho consumers.
