Imperial preference to aid Australian producers predicted
The speech by Secretary Amery announces Baldwin Government will implement Imperial preference agreements from last year’s conferences. Empire duties will favor the Empire over foreigners, with trials of higher duties for foreign origin goods and free admission for Empire products. Dried fruits, wines, honey, and currants are named with specific duty changes, and Australian Labor Party criticism is noted.
