Postwar public service reform urged by Curtin
The Cobram Courier discusses postwar civilian staffing cuts and reforms. It urges a thorough overhaul of the system, wider use of technical and scientific training, decentralised administration, and reeducation for redundant workers as war demand ends. The piece cites Allied Works Council and calls for value-driven public works and private contracting where cost effective. It ends with a Roosevelt Curtin attribution.
