Astrologers stir Canberra in uneasy political year ahead
Canberra notes a mix of political intrigue and prophecy as astrologers claim the federal government will survive seven years despite a dual opposition and as Premiers push for more state funding. Lord Fairfax tours to advocate wholesale Empire industry transfer, urging mass migration and cross‑continent industrial realignment amid postwar recovery and policy debates.

Upper Chapman Road Board Seeks 100 Pound Grant
The Upper Chapman Road Board met on the 25th with H. K. Smith as chairman and ten others present. They approved a 100 pound grant for the White Peak Carey Road, and directed the secretary to query why sand was not removed before road erasure. A 9:30 am start was proposed for future meetings, and a committee was authorized to handle correspondence. The board noted a debit balance of 1,053 pounds 4 shillings 2 pence and agreed to advise on the proposed deviation of the Gerakitoa North East Road. They also resolved to seek liability guidance from the Hallway Department regarding bushfire risks and associated employee costs, with members to individually prepare information for the next meeting.
