EX-GERMAN NEW GUINEA.
AWAITING A POLICY. Australian end N.Z. Cable Association 1 . (Reed. 12.5 a.m.) SYDNEY, April 12. Colonel Flood, chief medical officer in former German New Guinea, who is visiting Sydney, says that pending a declaration of 9 the Federal Government's policy under its mandate, little serious development work is possible in the mandated territory. The leading German companies which conducted most of the trade have been expropriated and their employees sent back to Germany. There are still 200 interned Germans, who will probably be sent back to Germany when the Expropriation Commission issues its report, and real development starts. Colonel Flood predicts that the territory will become a source of great wealth to Australia.
