Maize Growers Debate Overseas Shipment at Tolga

Atherton September meeting of the Maize Board discussed loading the Gambia River with voluntary labour for overseas shipment. Board officials reported 4000 tons at the wharf and 560 tons awaiting unload in Cairns as talks with Waterside Federation and Prime Minister yielded no clear reply. The group favored constitutional action and deferred a final decision to Saturday amid funding and logistics concerns.
