AUSTRALIA
WHEAT PRICES SYDNEY, Oct. 12. In reply to queries respecting the price of the incoming wheat crop, the President of the Commission stated: ''We cannot fix a price until the
supply and demand are known. In
any case we have no power to fix a price outside New South Wales, although I don't see why we should neglect the interest of the whole of Australia. The New Zealand commission will respect bona fide transactions if wheat is bought at higher prices than fixed later. The commission does not contemplate the seizure or holding at the declared
price.''
