Former Minister’s Appeal. ' TRIBUTE TO PRIMARY PRODUCER United Press Association —By Electrlo Telegraph—Copyright (Received April 12, 5.5 p.m.) MELBOURNE, April 12. Mr J. A. Lyons (formerly a member of Mr Scullin’s Cabinet), speaking at i Ballarat, said he was not afraid the i people of Australia would adopt Mr i Lang’s repudiation plan, but he feared ■ they might be tempted to subscribe to 1 the Inflation Issue of the Federal Go- i vernment, which was an Indirect form of repudiation. Australia’s wealth was ■ largely bound up In primary products, and everything must be done to encourage the primary producer who was the hardest worked and poorest paid man In the country. LABOUR'S POLICY OPPOSED. CAN MR LYONS SUCCEED? United Press Association—By Electrlo Telegraph -Copyright ADELAIDE, April 11. Addressing a meeting of business men, Mr J. A. Lyons said that he was prepared to lead the new Government In which all forces opposed to the Scullln-Theodore policy were united for the common purpose of the rehabilitation of the Commonwealth.
