War Year Finances and Board Staff Shortages Report
The Upper Blackwood Rd Board presents its annual financial summary showing a debit balance of £600 at year start and under £1,000 by year end. Improvements come from careful expenditure cuts, £200 net from hire, and wartime plant redeployments. Rates collection slowed slightly due to admin changes in large properties and postwar reserve fund plans. Plant use was limited with a power plant taken for defence works, staff shortages, and reliance on maintenance by settlers. The report notes defence work, fuel and water supply issues, and optimism for postwar funding. The board acknowledges criticism over rate policy but defends prudent reserves and future rebuilding as war ends approach. The year sees a shift toward increased confidence as wartime constraints ease and markets stabilize.

Let Us Treat the Jews According to the Golden Rule
A long moral sermon urges Christians to apply the golden rule to national policy and aid for the vulnerable. It argues for equal opportunity, pensions, housing, health care, and welcoming immigrants, linking charity to national righteousness and warning against antisemitic views in Australia. It recalls biblical commands to love God and neighbor, praises charitable acts, and condemns hatred as murder. It also recounts historical persecution of Jews and the need for humane asylum and aid.
