Defence bids fail as committee stalls Australian appeal
A citizens meeting in South Australia urged recruitment for national defence and formed a committee to drive voluntary enlistment. The body resisted government-backed efforts, delaying action and provoking calls for a new public meeting to expose apathy and spur broader support for Australia’s defence. The writer blames the committee’s inertia on inertia and youth detachment, urging swift, decisive public discussion and renewed vigilance.
