From the Pulpit on Questioning Faith and Mystery
The Rev Dr Waldock preached at Kingston Baptist Church about whether people ask too many questions. He cited Christ’s refusals to idle curiosity and his guidance on what matters: following the Master, not judging others, and the task of witnessing. He noted some questions remain beyond human understanding and that faith saves through belief.

Commonwealth Conference Aims At Unified Agricultural Policy
The Minister for Commerce Dr Earle Page spoke at the Carlton Hotel on Canberra talks to coordinate State Ministers of Agriculture and the Commonwealth. He urged a Commonwealth wide policy to counter nationalism and price dips, noting cooperation would aid industries like rice while lack of it harmed the grape industry. A national Australian agricultural council would shape production policy and strengthen trade negotiations within the Empire and with foreign markets.

Second to None American Demands for Naval Strength
The Navy Department annual report, issued by Naval Secretary Mr Swansen, urges a navy at treaty strength with a rapid construction program. Seventy ships are under way or planned, but more are needed to meet treaty ratios. The goal is to achieve treaty strength by 1942 with tail ships by 1939, while supporting a separate unification of services and efficient naval aviation. Contemplated 1936 builds include fast-tleet tanker vessels to keep pace with battle fleets.
