Canberra 25 Years Ago Prom The Canberg Times 1933
In Canberra 25 years ago the Government planned to move the Australian War Museum exhibits to Canberra to save £5,000 yearly. Tenders were to be invited for the War Memorial rebuilding costing £85,000 over two years with £23,000 from the War Memorial Fund. The Advisory Council searched for a new meeting room after Jolimonse Buildings were needed by Census staff, moving from Federal Capital Camp mission to Jolimone Buildings and then to the Sydney Building. A Canberra Housewives Association meeting was called due to declining public support to decide on continuing activities. The Burns Memorial Committee chose a site near Hotel Wellington at Canberra Avenue and Navona Circus for a Burns statue costing £5,000.
