SINGAPORE, May 24. The desirability of liaison be tween the various rubber planting associations in Malaya was stressed by the chairman, Mr. J. W. E. Adams, at the annual general mest- ing of the Johore Planters Associa- tion, held at the Civil Service Club, Johore, yesterday. He dealt with the proposal to form a central as- sociation at present under discus- sion, and said it was essential that there should be one body which could put up to Government mat- tors affecting the industry and which could speak with one Conway voice."

Referring to the report and ac- counts, which were passed, the chairman said that the Association had finished up the past year in a very much better financial posi tion than they expected. The com- mittee, at their last meeting, had approved the placing of another Kirk 81,000 for the time being in the Chappelle savings bank account with the P. and O. Bank.

Mr. Adams recalled the words of his highness the Sultan of Johore at the opening of the new oil palm factory at Lyang Lyang. His high ress had said that he would like to see other industries besides rub ber and oil palms in Johore. In Bekok pineapples had been planted extensively but they could not be exported owing to the difficulties Giles
Watts of handling before they got to the railway, at the railway and then Walters again in Singapore. It meant that John by the time the fruit was sold in Gresswell Singapore it was practically worth- lesa. If there was 3 road into Bekok they would be able to trans- port the fruit by lorry.
