CITRUS FRUIT
GROWERS SHOULD ASSIST IN SOLUTION OF PROBLEM LABOUR MEMBER DISSATISFIED (United Pr<*B« Association—By Electrio Telegraph—Copyright' CANBERRA, Ist October. In the House of Representatives today, the Labour member, Mr Beasley, speaking on the Orange Bounty Amending Bill, said he was not satisfied that the Governments of Australia and New Zealand were handling the citrus fruit and other trade negotiations in the right way, otherwise more would have been done to meet the wishes of the New Zealand consumers and the Australian growers. He felt that the growers themselves should take a hand and try to find a solution. He contended that Parliament should be told more about the position. Sir Frederick Stewart, recalling the 1934 conference between Australian and New Zealand representatives, pointed out that the conference was unanimous that it was not necessary to retain the quarantine prohibitions on plant life subject to departmental supervision. He was surprised that the agreement had not been put into effect.
