RESTRICTIONS TO CONTINUE LONDON, Fob. J 4. Mr. J. E. Fenton, Australian Minister of Trade and Customs, does not intend to hold a conference with the British representatives on migration as, owing to the slowing down of the assisted passage system, ho considers no good purpose would be served by the discussion.
New Zealand proposes not to resume assisting migrants for 12 months, and lie sees no possibility of Australia doing so any sooner. Tho Dominions Department informed Australia House that tho sum ot £15,000 yearly for free advertising throughout the nation, which linked up with migration, would probably be cut off.
