MIGRATION URGED
BRITISH AND U.S. WORKERS NEW AUSTRALIAN PLANTS (10 a.m.) SYDNEY, May 17. British and American manufacturers who wish to establish factories in Australia should be encouraged to bring full stall's here, said Mr. John Storey, director of the Beaufort division of the Commonwealth Department of Aircraft Production, who has just returned to Australia after six months’ survey of British and American industry. Mr. Storey said that Australia House in London was receiving more than 1000 inquiries weekly from English people seeking to migrate to Australia after the end of the Japanese war. In advocating the migration of whole staffs of British and American factories to Australia, he was not being disloyal to Australian workmen. The newcomers would add to Australia's population and technical strength. He had no doubt that, after the war, every Australian workman could be employed if Australian industries were developed as they should be developed.
