Cane Growers debate labor contracts and surplus cane

Members discuss a uniform labor contract for cane cutters, penalties for breach, and retaining money to enforce compliance. They plan to press Babinda and other mills to absorb surplus cane, with a deputation to negotiate with Mulgrave and Hambledon mills for 16 000 tons, outlining annual carnage tonnage and potential long term arrangements.

Babinda cane mill debate seeks relief and cross-mill agreements

Local farmers push for temporary relief and a plan to divert surplus cane to other mills. The Treasurer faces disagreement over long term action with proposals for inter mill contracts and a deputation to negotiate 2000 tons from Babinda, amid concerns about capacity and seasonal timing.
