Frontiers Lose Significance in Europe After War Proposals

An August 1940 exchange in occupied Paris reveals a German diplomat doubting frontier relevance, predicting postwar general elections across Europe will decide revolutionary issues. The piece links Yugoslav and Greek conflicts, Allied exile politics, and pre-election skirmishes as indicators of looming political upheaval. It notes U.S. plans to retain wartime airfields until a postwar settlement ensures security and access for all nations.

Notes of the Week report Fremantle's push to establish a youth centre for boys and girls.

Me. D. M. Paterson leads the Fremantle initiative, with official opening expected in a month.

Kondict Rubber Plantations Taken Over During War

The Kondict Rubber plantations in Papua were seized by staff from July 1, 1943. The Australian New Guinea Production Control Board has been formed at Port Moeshy, while Kotaki directors resist. Losses from military occupation and neglect total at least £4,000, with taxation disallowing this. Efforts to curb weeds and expand work with native labor aim to boost future rubber output. A revised rubber price is expected, and the 1944 year end balance sheet may show satisfactory results, with a push to Victory through war bonds.
