Water schemes and agrarian strain in Queensland debate
Correspondence to the Post and Herald discusses the Inkerman irrigation project. Critics say costs have ballooned to about four million extra beyond estimates and water allocation remains insufficient for many farms. The letter questions who bears the burden, notes unemployment, and argues for fair support while condemning mismanagement and war-time cost impacts. Additional letters call for unity but warn against favoritism toward favored workers and exporters while detailing local labor and port activity.
