Following the Prime Minister’s refusal to grant import permits for larger petrol quantities the States reluctantly adopt rationing. Figures cited by Mr. Fadden indicate further rationing might have been avoided with additional supplies for sterling payment and improved transport logistics.
A fragmented report discusses rabbits on soldier settlement properties. It questions whether Lands Department action was taken to clear infestations before vacant possession and mentions government acquisition for servicemen. The piece also references officials and meetings and a long, uncertain transcript of remarks.
The readable fragments reference a meeting on 18 with West area figures and a topic about wages and a ranger. Key names or places are obscured, leaving only partial phrases about a task force or committee and potential discussions on compensation and containment.
