Westcot, general manager of the C. C. Wakefield Company of Australia and New- Zealand, interviewed todav declared Australia and New Zealand were more than interested in Empire trade and would be prepared to meet Canada more than ha/lf-way m inter-Dominion commerce. Ho was afraid the Canadian Government and business men did not quite realise this. Mr Westcot favoured the Australian treaty and thought Canadian dairymen opposed it because Antipodean butter was a more uniform produce because it Avas produced under stricter co-opera-tive methods than' in Canada. While not criticising a sister Dominion. Mr Westcot pointed out that Australia Avas shipping great quantities of products to the Orient because the Commonwealth had gone after business there. He could not help feeling Canada should do the same. The interview appears in the “Bun, a leading Liberal paper, under a. big head-line, “Walce up, Canada.”
