Who Pays The Commonwealth Adjudication Commission Strike Costs
The commission dismissed an appeal by a Sydney waterside worker, with stoppages halting 80 ships for 400 ship days and costing 300k to 400k pounds. London losses include food destruction and rising prices. Employers and workers pass costs to the community via higher prices, insurance, and overtime. Australia shows reduced lost working days, but vast indirect costs remain borne by wage earners through higher goods and services.

Philosophers and Philosophy Questioned by Professor Passmore
Professor J A Passmore, of the Australian National University, urged the audience at a joint Rotary Apex gathering in Canberra to examine beliefs before accepting them. He outlined two paths for opinion: fantasy or questioning appearances to discern the world beneath. He noted philosophy and science share aims but differ in focus from mathematical proof, and told how philosophers have faced trouble, citing Socrates and Bertrand Russell.
