DISTINCT IMPROVEMENT’
CONDITIONS IN AUSTRALIA. MORE HOPEFUL TONE ABROAD. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) Sydney, December 23. Upon his arrival in Sydney from abroad, Mr W. M. Hughes said: ‘ I am of opinion that things have distinctly improved throughout the Commonwealth.” Referring to the economic situation, Mr Hughes said the only hope for Australia was that Britain should give a lead to the world. He had become aware of a more hopeful tone among men of affairs with a revival of confidence generally which, if slight, was distinct. Mr Hughes expressed the opinion that unless wool and wheat prices went up it would be very difficult indeed for the country to get out of its troubles.
