Official figures on road accidents show liquor contributing to crashes but do not reveal the full picture. NSWLMAL general secretary Mr A Leslie argues Saturday is the most dangerous day with liquor factors, calling for motorists to avoid drink as the festive season nears.
This second instalment argues that a “another Kenya” in New Guinea cannot exist. The Kukukuku tribe dominates a vast, hostile region from Lower Wortur Vollere to Purarie River, with about a hundred thousand people sharing nomadic, hostile ways and resisting white administration. White explorers faced hostility, and early mining activity near Kukukuku lands showed the danger of contact.
The text describes white administration reforms in New Guinea and nearby regions, including village duties, training of local leaders, and punishment systems. It praises native cooperation during wartime, notes propaganda by Japan, and contrasts harsh penalties with acts of kindness under Australian governance. It highlights intertribal practices, health care roles of white doctors, and the complex relationship between natives and authorities.

The Forke evening will present Upper School prizes and the parish kindergarten Christmas tree and prizegiving is set for Saturday afternoon. A farewell to Rev Torrance and election of Rev H Barratt to the College Council are noted alongside ongoing plans and film evenings.
The article discusses taxation relief, export production, and the impact of inflation and high costs on Australian industry. It notes government loan programs, monetary changes, and a shift to competition and free enterprise, with emphasis on maintaining export competitiveness and controlling coal prices to support economic stability.
