Geraldton Council discusses wages and local projects
The Geraldton Council on Wednesday night examined sanitary workers wage demands noting they were below metropolitan pay by 1s per day and referred the matter to the Finance Committee. A letter from Lands allowed the council to lease part of the Chapman River Reserve west of the railway. Funds were pledged to troops and the Southern Cross tobacco fund. A proposal for a separate high school in Geraldton prompted calls for a suitable site, with Northam cited as an example and 10 acres offered locally.
