AUSTRALIA’S POLICY
ALL INTERESTS RESPFCTED (Rec. 1.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, Apl. 30. “We have not socialised Australia, and we do not intend to do it just because we are at war,” said the Prime Minister, Mr J. Curtin, to-day. “We have not regarded the post-war order as being more important than the war itself. We have not attempted to use the powers vested in us as Ministers to bring in any change of organisation in Australia merely because we have been advocates of this principle or that.
“All the interests vested in employers, trade unions, or citizens,” he said. “ will be respected in so far as they are compatible with the maximum organisation of Australia for the purpose of the war. Such interference, restraint, and adjustments as we make will be made only because they are necessary to prosecute the war effectively.”
