THE MEAT TRADE
UNION COLD STORAGE COMPANY. ITS OPERATIONS IN AUSTRALIA. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright SYDNEY, November 30. Sir Phillip Proctor, the representative in Australia of the Union Cold Storage Company, which is interested in the Port Darwin Meat Works, replying to criticisms, denied a suggestion that the company was connected with the American Meat Trust. On the contrary, it was in keen competition with the American Trust, and was making an effective fight against it in the retail trade in Britain. He also denied a suggestion that the company’s Australasian interests were being made subservient to its Argentine interests. The company had now only one works in the Argentine, having disposed of two others, compared with five works in Australasia. The company was only too anxious to reopen the Darwin works as soon as there wag the smallest chance of remunerative operations.
