Parkes by election tests public opinion and hardship cited
The bitter Parkes by election is described as a test of public mood on federal issues. Voters show little interest amid wrangling among politicians, while unemployment, poverty, and rising distress affect families and youths. A mass meeting of the Australian Railway Union votes for a general strike over a 10 percent pay cut, and cultural news includes Archibald Wynne prize results and art exhibitions. The piece also notes Deaconess May Pallister’s England departure and civic events in Sydney.
