Rabbit Menace Statewide Drive Proposed by Pasture Boards
At a Young Pastures Protection Board meeting Mr T J Calling proposed a coordinated statewide war on the rabbit menace. He urged Federal Grants to fund drives, unemployed labor for feeding drives, and rabbit proof barriers linking existing private fences with gates on roads. The board backed the plan and will seek approval from neighboring boards before approaching the Department of Agriculture and Federal Government for a grant.

Correspondence on Lachlan and Murrumbidgee floods and dam aims
A reader disputed claims that Lachlan foods would vanish after Wyangala Dam and that Murrumbidgee floods ceased post Burrinjuck. The letter argues dams mainly retain water for release in dry periods and criticizes flood level expectations, noting past high flood years on the Murrumbidgee in 1925 and 1931 and urging scrutiny of water release management.

Flood Concerns Over Wyangala Dam Effects On Lachlan
In a meeting concerning flood risks, speakers warned that increasing water release from Wyangala dam would not prevent floods on the Lachlan or reduce flood severity lower down. They noted potential overflow along the Murrumbidgee and Lachlan basins and urged realism about dam benefits for river towns and riverfronts in Bedgerabong Narandera Hay and surrounding areas. The letter from Edward C Br Killen emphasizes disappointment if assurances mislead residents about flood relief from the project.
