State Debates Wheat Pool and Grain Elevators Bill
The State Government debates two bills affecting the wheat harvest and grain storage in Western Australia. The Wheat Marketing Bill seeks Parliament approval for state control of the coming wheat crop and continues the pooling system since 1915. The Grain Elevators Bill would authorize the West Australian Grain Growers Company to build grain elevators and grant a 25 year state monopoly. Farmers express concern that the pool may be artificial and keep prices from varying naturally.

It also examines a proposed 225 year monopoly for bulk handling by the Grain Elevators Company, with objections to statewide control and calls for zone-based expansion. Additional items cover local events, livestock and poultry yields, census notes, harvest prospects, and community notices.
