Post J.O. Plan Draws Woolgrower Debate in Victoria
In a widely published letter Francis R. Howell claims opponents of the Post J.O. Wool Scheme are influenced by the buying trade and financial houses. He argues the plan is government controlled under the label of protection. Charles C. Kelly, president of the Graziers Association of Victoria, counters that government control risks losing grower marketing power and praises R. D. Bakewell for his stance against entrenched governmental intrusion.
