Farmers' Relief Act extended Stay Orders period to June 30 1938
A 1938 amendment to the Farmers Relief Act extends the period for receipt of supplications for Stay Orders to June 30 1938. By December 31 1937 the Farmers Relief Board approved composition arrangements totaling £1 260 000 with £704 000 already advanced. The amendment simplifies withdrawal of Disclaimers by shifting the onus to creditors to lodge objections, limiting objections to creditors who aided the farmer after disclaimer signing. A Burrowa News Office note offers rubber stamp designs for purchase.

War experiences in Shanghai Chinese girl writes to
A letter dated December 17 by Miss Mavis Ming from Shanghai to a Cowra friend provides sidelights on the wartime period. She describes aerial raids, the Japanese procession through the settlement, and border tensions with French forces. Ming recounts seeing foreign boats seized, border barriers, and a French escort passing with tension.
