Australia Eyes Postwar Economic Readjustment
The author argues that postwar liquidation of 10 000 to 15 000 million pounds of goods alongside billions in military equipment and 20 million tons of shipping will flood markets. Substantial subsidies under British guidance may be phased out in Australia while humanitarian aid to liberated nations will require hard bargains with producers. A united Australia should guide national readjustment with expert leadership.
