INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT LONDON, June 16. At the fourth International Congress on Refrigeration Mr Sidney’ Webb, in welcoming the delegates, said that as Britain was compelled to import- half her foodstuffs she depended for her existence on the best possible methods of transporting foodstuffs, especially meat. fie thought- the refrigerating process should be so developed that iruit and vegetables would ripen -at sea and arrive in a better condition than when shipped. All* Russell Sinclair, of Sydney, jfcpresenting the Commonwealth, said that as Australia had led the way in the export, of frozen meat long distances and still shipped further than any other country, refrigeration was a matter of great importance to Australia. The people of the Commonwealth looked to Britain and the United States to advise them regarding the best methods or developing refrigerating processes. The result of the conference would be awaited with the greatest interest in Australia.
