AMENDMENT IN AUSTRALIA
Received September 14, 9.30 a.m. CANBERRA, Sept. 14. Amending navigation legislation is being introduced into the Federal Parliament shortly that will control the operations of the present Matson service between Auckland, Sydney and Melbourne, complaints regarding which have been made by a committee of members of Parliament of four States.
