Leased Public Land Sparks Call for Tender Reform
The Forbes Labor League advances a resolution condemning the Jema-Jong Shire Council for granting a 5 year lease of Tregolanga 1241 acres and a water tank to a council member without public tender. It urges Local Government Act changes to prevent corrupt leases and to resume public watering-places for closer settlement and stockholding use.

Bankrupts Seek Transfer Return of Forbes Land in NSW
In an ex parte bankruptcy case in Sydney, Patrick and James Ryan and James Ryan’s estate pursue a declaration that a December 1920 transfer of Forbes land to Katherine Ryan is void or, failing that, an order for transfer to the official assignee. The matter concerns alleged avoidance of creditors under bankruptcy law, with proceedings detailing payments and improvements and the sequestration of the Ryans’ estates. The decision favored the official assignee, ordering transfer to him within 21 days, with a secured charge to Katherine Ryan for monies paid.
