Calwell Attacks Government Over Economic Policy and Debt
In a sharp critique, Mr. Calwell accuses the Government of two years of stagnant progress and rising inflation.

He condemns tax cuts for the wealthy, insufficient wage relief, and dependence on overseas investors while urging a self-reliant, expanding Australia with full employment and low interest rates.
