Can we with a proud record in peace and war, with the best human stock in the world- can we, with our freedom and de- mocratie control, produce bulk ex- ports at the world's prien. and, if not, how do we expect to sell our goods? In this great effort to improve production and to reduce costs here and in Australia, it is evident that employers and em- playee must work together, and I hope, equally evident that Great Britain and Australia must, in |
their common interest sack

Together we set day as heretofore. up an organisation at all the chief ports of Australia to translate our general ideas into specific sugges tions and to recommend them to the public.

Although we met to dis- cuss that awkward tople, a rise of freights, Mr. Bell, Mr. Trethowan, and their colleagues on the Aus- tralian side readily agreed to work with us to reduce the un- and burden of transport which concerns them and all Australia.

The resolution was adopted and the plenary session then concluded.
After the Conference Mr. Ramsay MacDonald expressed the view to Press correspondents that they were within measurable distance of solu tion of the problem of category 'tonnage, versus global tonnage, and that the committee would present
