AUSTRALIA AND COLOURED LABOUR.
SOUTH AUSTRALIAN PREMIER DENIES AMERICAN STATEMENTS. Received July 13, 7.50 p.m. SYDNEY, July 13. Mr. Barwell, South Australian Premier, interviewed, denied the statements attributed to him by 1 American papers in favour of the introduction of black labour into Australia. He declared that apparently if American journalists could not get news they constructed it. His attitude toward tropical labour was really that something should be done to develop Australia’s waste territory. If that were possible by white labour no one would be better pleased than he, but the question must be tackled and a sane solution reached.
