Queensland Cotton Industry Hopes Raise in State
Governor Sir Leslie Wilson suggested that Queensland may establish a cotton mill soon, with one mill seen as valuable for the industry. Manager Mr Young and Davien Coop directors supported duties to aid expansion, noting Queensland as the only cotton-growing state since 1928 with 4000 to 40,000 cotton farmers and about 3,000 workers. The harvesting season runs into July, with output projected around 14,000 bales this year. If favorable tariffs pass, manufacturing could demand 20,000 tons of cotton, boosting expansion and reducing imports.
