ASSISTED MIGRATION
SLOWING DOWN IN AUSTRALIA. STATEMENT BY MR FENTON. (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON,' February ?.3. (Received Feb. 14, at 9 p.m.) Mr Fenton does not intend to attend the conference of British representatives on migration as owing to the slowing down of the assisted passage system he considers that no good purpose would be served by a discussion New Zealand proposes not-to resume assisting migrants for 12 months, and he sees no possibility of Australia doing so sooner. The Dominions Department has informed Australia Honse that the £15,000 a year for free advertising throughout the nation, which is linked up with migration, will probably be cut off.
