New Secretary For N. Guinea
MR. W. R. PAUL, who was for some years on the staff of Bulolo Gold Dredging, Ltd., in New Guinea, has been appointed organising secretary of the New Guinea Planters’
Union; and he left recently for Rabaul, to take over his new duties.
It is understood that the Planters’
Union, henceforth, will take a much stronger line than hitherto in matters relating to (a) the sale of its New Guinea copra and (b) the purchase of plantation supplies; and that Mr. Paul will be asked to undertake what has been described as “a man-size job”.
Mr. Les. Clark, another New Guinea “old-timer”, who now runs the South west Pacific Trading Co,, at 31 King St., Svdney, will act as the Sydney agent of the Planters’ Union,
