Alderman Dowd received a letter from Hon. John Beasley, Minister for Supply and Development, noting that a Melbourne conference set the method for selecting power alcohol distillery sites. The Commonwealth will largely be guided by state views, with Wellington's claims to be fully considered against other localities when the Federal Cabinet makes a final choice. A visit by Dowd or a deputy would not advance the matter as Wellington’s facilities are well known and comparable.
