Country Killing and Meat Works Growth Under Country Party Plan
The Country Party’s policy promotes country killing with new meat works at Bourke and other towns, backed by government finance and railway support. Proposals aim to expand private co op killing, storage, and by products to stabilize prices, develop rural industry, and reduce dependence on Homebush meat supplies.

Government crops up a cautionary Homebush tale
The union promised 80 sheep per minute under Army release, production dropped from day one. Government ownership, McKell and Curtin administrations face criticism for failing to fix strikes and industrial woes. Losses in sheep and cattle output mount, stock conditioning suffers, rail disruption and cancelled auctions follow. County Party aided by local soap sponsors backs the piece.

Road funding clash over coastal boat haulage burden
Sir Earle Page urged federal help as coastal boat acquisitions shift freight to road transport. Prime Minister Curtin said Allied Works Council equipment could aid local bodies, and warned state funds under the Federal Aid Roads Agreement were not fully used in recent years. He suggested some roads serve military sites and that states have funds to reimburse municipalities and shires. Curtin promised investigation of highway designation.
