New South Wales Politics FARMERS WILL INSIST ON SUBSIDIARY PORTS CHEAP OUTLETS FOR PRODUCE. Australian Press Association. Received Monday, 10.5 p.m. SYDNEY, Jan. 14. Arising out of the “Big Four’’- report, in which the Government is urged to develop a policy of decentralisation, a group of representative wool growers in southern New South Wales intend to make decentralisation an outstanding election issue. Mr It. H. Webster, spokesman for the primary producers, declares that the farmers are going to fight tho city people, who must make up their minds t« allow Port Stephens, on the north coast and Jervis Bay, on tho south coast, to be opened up to enable the pvoduoers to handle the produce of the hinterland without the necessity of having to drag it all the way to Sydney at the prevailing colossal cost.
