Speaking of hia experlencea with the

intense admiration for the way in which
the feeling of this country has changed.
Particularly is thia change noticeable in
New York, he said, where it was luke

quicker understanding of thia war's
significance than in Australia. It Is
because the services formerly ren
dered to Australia by the Mother
Country have been withdrawn, be
cause Ban-power has been reduced,
because her lack of facilities has pre
vented ber from supplying out of her
great store the things which her allies
so urgently need, and because ber sat
isfaction with things ss they were has
given way to a realisation of things
as they are going to be, that the aston
ishingly co-operative mind of Australia
has bent to the task of preparation for
the future.
The war has shown how useless re
sources of wealth are, either for serv
ice or profit, unless facilities exist for
sinking tbem available when and
where they are wanted. With enor
mous surplusage of wheat, wool,
sugar, beef, and fruits, Australia has
been forced to erect storage-houses
and to risk millions In losses because
of lack of transportation. Kor the Im
portation of much needed manufac
tured articles she has hnd to rely to a
groat extent upon the uncertain visits
of sailing-vessels. Coal and metuls

It ia believed that It will form the
backbone of a system that will event

territory rich In mineral deposits.
Australia Is cnrnble of Industrial
expansion on a great scale. Her nat
ural resnurces have never been sub
jected to the exploitation easily possi
ble In lands well provided will) rail

were making some beaduay In mining
and In related metal Industries when
the war broke oui. bat tliett holdings
nave been seized and steps have been
taken to prevent their return. Oil
bearing shale exists In large quanti
ties, nnd n considerable export busi
ness in this product was done with
Great Britain and America. The only
oil refinery In the country was In New
South Wales, but In the belief that de
posits exist elsewhere the Common
wealth Government has offered a boun
ty totaling $337,500 for a period or
four years. An American expert Is
now exploring the oil resources In
New Guinea, which the Australians
sclied from the Germans nnd which
they are determined to keep.
The output of the Australian metal
Industries for the next ten years has
been contracted for. The second Inrg
est electro-iinc plant In the world hns
been established, and it Is reported
that Great Britain has arranged to
take the surplus of sine concentrates
for the next ten years. Queensland
hns an abundance of copper and tin.
More con I than gold has been mined
there of late, and large deposits of
wolfram hove been discovered. New
South ales has coal, silver, lead and
gold. Much copper was produced there
in 1017, and a plant for the manufac
ture of copper wire and other goods
has been established at Port Kimble,
sixty miles from Sydney. In Victoria
forty gold mining companies have com
bined to Insure more economical pro-
auction.
Having an ample supply of wool,
Australia sees no reason why her tex
tile Industries should not be expanded.

States there Is one sheep to every
three persons; In Australia there are
twenty sheep to every one person.
Only 2 per cent of the wool clip Is
consumed tn Australia, although there
are now twenty-live textile mills, and
some effort Is being made to Increase
local sales. Great lirimln may decide
to take the exportable surplus.
Cattle raising flourishes In Queens- -land
nnd the Northern Territory, and
much beef Is frozen for export This
output of beef products and of butter
and cheese Is to receive stimulation
under the Government's plans for ex
tending export business. Australia has
an annual surplus of 40,000 tons of
butter for export.
Plans for enlarging the orchard
areas of the conntry are being made,
and New South Wales expects that the
evaporation of fruit will become an
Importnnt industry there. Jam to the
value of millions of dollars Is now ex
