LATE MESSAGES
LONDON, December 19. Referring to Uruguay attaining perfection in the latest shipment of chilled beef to Loudon, Mr Pike told the Australian Press Association: “I see no outlook for the cattle industry in Queensland, if it relies upon frozen meat exports. It must be realised that the standard of living in Britain considerably improved after the war. Industrial centres which formerly consumed large quantities of frozen meat now insist on prime fresh or chilled. Developments in chilled beef from Uruguay, Rhodesia, and South Africa must also impose severe handicaps on the Australian frozen meat industry. It. can be visualised within a short time that they will unload on Britain quantities of chilled which will not. leave room for frozen. Queensland must redouble her efforts to organise regular consignments of chilled to Britain, if the export phase of the industry is to remain a. factor in the economic progress of the I
State. Belgium’s recent prohibition of Australian frozen meat is another indication of the trend of events.
