AUSTRALIAN PRODUCTS
MARKETING IN LONDON. MORE BUSINESSLIKE METHODS NEEDED. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received August 22, 8.10 p.m.) SYDNEY, August 22. Speaking at the Farmers’ Conference Mr Trethowan, a member of the Legislative Council, who recently visited London in connection with the marketing of primary products, urged the need of having someone in London thoroughly conversant with business who could decide fearlessly without having to refer to Australia. Ho mentioned that while in London he was able to make £40,000 to £50,000 for the wheat pool because he was able to put through sales at the right time. He extended that Australia was not receiving an adequate return for the outlay of £1,000,000 spent on Australia House and several thousands spent yearly upon the High Commissioner and his staff. The business side of Australian representation was not sufficiently looked after.
