Closer settlement urged by Farmers and Settlers' Association
The Farmers and Settlers' Association executive in Sydney last week pressed closer settlement, urging immediate government action and ANC collaboration with Britain. They backed a comprehensive scheme financed by a special Australian loan, criticized the Canberra Wheat Conference outcome, and favored a compulsory pool under growers' control with crop‑failure provisions. The meeting also debated southwest rehabilitation and a modest wool levy, while urging timely soil readiness and seed quality for flowering stock.
