AMERICA ACCUSED OF
"DUMPING"
Australian Wheat- Board's
Strong Complaint
Melbourne, Mar. 17. ́ ́`· The Chairman of the Australian Wheat Board, Sir John Treasdale, tonight described recent United States sales of wheat to Spain and Japan as "dumping”.

Austrália had tendered a “favourable price" for the supply of 200,000 tons of wheat to Spain. "But in face of American willingness to accept payment in Spanish currency, no tender at any price by Australia could hope to succeed in securing the business,” Sir John said.
"Despite the pretence that United States moves had been such sales are made for defence most unfavourable. ог social reasons, the proper name for such transactions dumping
