Commissioner silent over document at ANU clash

The Commonwealth Police Commissioner, J. M. Davis, refused to discuss police action in taking a document from the ANU Students Representative Council office. The item was a declaration by supporters of Stephen Gregory Padgham, a 21-year-old student sought for failing to attend a national service medical exam. A warrant was issued for his arrest after he did not appear in Canberra court. Police noted the SRC office action and a related case while broader regional economic figures from a separate survey were cited.
