20 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, January 13, 1960 Rustralian Pearls Better For Exciting New Industry By HAROLD TILLEY di Press Corresp MELBOURNE (CP)--Out on the remote regions of the north- west coast, the production of pearls is giving Australia an ex- citing new industry. One Japanese expert, Tokuichi Kuribayashi of the Nippo Pearl Company, has described the Aus- tralian pearls as bigger, brighter, better and therefore much more valuable than anvthing produced "culturally" elsewhere. One New York jeweler has sold a string for $100,000 and reports indicate that Australian oysters are not only producing more lus- trous pearls than those of Japan but that the pearls are cultured three times as quickly. United States, Australian and Japanese. interests have set up a firm, Pearls Proprietary Lim- a ited, to develop the industry. One| has been taken to keep the sec-| rets within an extremely re- stricted group. Information relating to the Aus- tralian pearl culture -- at Kuri Bay, a couple of hundred miles north of Broome on the north- west coast -- has been almost completely devoted to the end product. The project is jointly fi- nanced by American and Austral- ian capital and is largely the out- come of an approach some years ago bv Japanese oyster pearl cul-| turists. | | There is no map reference to] {Kuri Bay, as such, where the | oyster farm.is '~cated.

This exercise under the hot tropical sun forms an important part of the training at the Indo-| nesian Civil Aviation Academy, first flying school of its kind in Southeast Asia.

The school, 30 miles west of the Indonesian capital of Jakarta at an airport built during the Japan- ese occupation, still is under con- struction. New workshops, class- rooms and hangars are being built for its 450 students.
