The Jargon of the Workaday World in Melbourne

In Melbourne a slangy culture of shortenings and colorful phrases spreads through daily life as suburbia shifts after the new hospital move. The writer notes traffic, market scenes, and social quirks while highlighting local figures like Phillip Abson and the evolving literary scene among bankers and editors.

Wheat price concession controversy voiced by NSW growers

A letter from R A O Neill, NSW Farmers and Settlers Assn executive councillor, argues for cost of production plus a fair margin as the basis for concession wheat prices and calls for safeguards against future low prices. He criticizes the Wheat Acquisition Regulations and the Australian Wheat Board for keeping prices low and urges a cost plus policy and market parity for Australian consumption. He also includes a note of thanks to Cobram Fire Brigade and Comforts Fund for pantries orders.
