Trading banks in low mood blamed for depression era
Cairns Post reviews the 1930s depression in Australia, arguing the fall in export prices drove the downturn more than banks. It cites wheat price drops, income declines from 630 million to 430 million, and loan stoppages, noting banks' lending and rate cuts as stabilizing factors while exchange adjustments aided exporters and restrained imports. The piece recalls Prime Minister Lyons praising banks as essential to avoiding collapse and questions political control over banking in future downturns.
