OVERCROWDED CITIES
POSITION IN AUSTRALIA The rapid development of secondary industries both in Sydney and Melbourne, but especially in Melbourne, much impressed Mr. 1). A. Ewen, of Wellington, who returned by tho Monov. a i yesterday after spending three weeks in Australia. Mr. Ewen is managing director of Alessrs. Sargood, Son and Ewen. . "In my opinion the so industries Jiavc gone ahead far too last for the country," said Mr. Ewen, who was visiting Australia after a 12 years' abRence. He said tho teeming populations of the cities seemed to be far too great u burden for tho country areas to carry. Thero were too many industrial plants, and many manufacturers admitted there was too much protection even for the good of tho industries themselves. Superficially, at any rate, there was some general improvement in conditions. The streets were full of people and the cheaper classes of trado were having a busy time.
