HAMPERING TRADE
AUSTRALIA’S CASE BETTER TREATMENT WANTED FROM BRITAIN. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright LONDON, November 30. Sir John Taverner, Victorian AgentGcncral, in a paper road before the Australasian. Chamber of Commerce on the cncourgameut of British enterprise- and industry, said Australians were not receiving from the Motherland the recognition and support they were entitled to in developing the resources of the Empire. The new Port of London rates, too, were calculated to hamper trade. The writer suggested that the subject should be considered at the forthcoming Imperial Conference, and advocated the Imperial- Government's adoption of maximum and minimum tariffs, which would enable Australia to do tariff bargainings as Austria had done in the case of meat. Mr T. A. Coghlan, AgentGeneral for New South Wales, and Mr McCall, Agent-General for Tasmania, supported the proposal.
