MR COATES DELAYED
FINALISING AGREEMENT LEAVING ON SATURDAY (By Telegraph—Preaa Association —Copyright) I • LONDON, July 17. The necessity for finalising the draft meat agreement is expected to delay thc Righ Horn J. G. Coates, who has cancelled berths on the Bercngaria for July 18 and will leave on July 20, catching the Pacific boat by hurrying across America. The draft includes machinery under which past practices will continue until the Empire Council decides the alterations. Thc British representatives desire to ensure adequate supplies of lower grades for poorer purchasers, while thc suppliers, notably Africa and South America, prefer excision of thc cheaper parts of carcases. Another objective will be more uniform quality and weight, concerning which it is hoped that Australia will improve her regulations. Mr. Coates flew to Brussels, confirm ing the satisfactory operation of the Belgo-Zoaland treaty, returning thc same day. TREATY WITH SWEDEN PRELIMINARY ARRANGEMENTS LONDON, July 17. Mr. Coates, pending a treaty, has concluded an arrangement for most-favoured-national treatment with Sweden, terminable at three months’ notice.
