N.Z. FRUIT EMBARGO NEW SOUTH WALES CONCERNED. BEBIOUB EFFECTS FEARED. (United Press Amoeistlon-8j OableCopyrlcbt.) (Received 19, 11.40 a.m.) Sydney, Dec. 19. The New Zealand embargo against Australian fruits is expected to react seriously against the irrigation areas of New South Wales which had worked up a large trade in New Zealand for citrus fruits. In an average year the Griffiths Producers’ Coy. alone exports upwards of 60,000 bushels of oranges to New Zealand. There is no disposition on the part of the Griffith Coy. to blame New Zealand for its retaliatory action as local growers have persistently agitated against embargoes on the importation of fruit to Australia, pointing out that the inevitable retaliation would wreck Australia’s growing export trade in fruits. The Sydney "Telegraph’s" Melbourne correspondent says that strong representations have been made by th* Commonwealth Government to the New Zealand Government following the em* bargo on Australian fruit.
