FEDERAL WHEAT GUARANTEE
ANOTHER SHILLING SUGGESTED,
United Press Assn.—Elec.-Tel. —Copyright. (Received Feb. 24, 1.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, Feb. 24.
Mr Nook, president of the New South Wales farmer Settlers’ Association, says that though the suggested guarantee of is a bushel for wheat was a step in the right direction, it was insufficient to effect any increase of production. If the guarantee were 5s per bushel the farmers would respond to the extent of 1,000,000 acres additional cultivation. This would absorb many of the country’s unemployed.
