(Canadian Press Nesoatsh London, May 22.--The Britt sh government and the government of Australia. have come to an arrange- ment whereby the whole of the bal- ance of the British government's pure of wheat and wool remain- iag in Australia will be shipped to England and disposed of to the trades concerned within the next few months. la response to a government ap- peal to British shipowners over twenty cargo' boats, with an aggre- gate carrying capacity of 200,000 tons, have diverted Australia-wards, under instruction from their owners, from India, China, the Cape, the Mediterranean, and other routes. They will all load wheat to their full capacity and will be followed by a number of other vessels of the tramp class with a view to getting the whole of the wheat . ipped within the ensuing three months, As this wheat is in the states of PILES: 4 Western Australia and South Aus- tralia, neither of which is able tc provide bunker coal, some of the ships will have to coal "at Sydney or Newcastle, in New South Wales, and others at Durban, South Africa. This disability has added much to the transport problem. In the matter of wool supplies the Imperfal authorities are reported to be extremely anxious to get the bal- ance of their purchase now in store in Australia, which amounts to no less than 2,000,000 bales, shipped within the next six months, Some time ago, it was announced that the director of raw materials stipulated that the wool should be "lifted" bes [} fore the end of June. This was found to be impossible, but a strenu- ous effort will be made to get the last of the wool hipped by October. DR. ABBOTT BACK T0 COLLEGE.
