Tariff and Unemployment in Australia
The Secretary of the Graziers Association of New South Wales argues tariff protection harmed workers by keeping prices high while exports fell. He notes a 4.1/3 to 1 ratio between national income and exports since 1932 to 1929, with 1931-1931 declines, and claims high tariffs reduce competition, boost employer costs, and drive unemployment.

Crown Settlers Deferred Payment Arrears Relief Announced
Premier Stevens announced a cabinet decision to defer all existing arrears on Crown land purchase instalments until the end of the term. Interest will not accrue on deferred instalments, benefiting at least 10,000 settlers across Crown Lands Acts. Considerable reappraisal of land values will reduce future liabilities and cap interest charges. The minister for lands may deny postponement in justified cases.
