Country Party in Parliament Debate on Commonwealth Bank Split
The Housing plan bill passed the House of Representatives second reading by 28 votes amid Labour Party opposition. Dr Page defended the bill, noting the Commonwealth Bank Board supported separating ordinary banking from the Savings Bank, with proposed accounts to be consolidated when directed by the Auditor General. The piece contrasts rural credit expansion with prior government controls and quotes critics of Mr Hughes. The Canberra Capital debate prompts commentary on federal spirit and railway gauge issues. Local Victorian press critiques Canberra as a national impetus and calls for weekend half-holidays for Bellayee.
