Canada to allow gold sales on free markets officials say
Canada moves to grant gold producers the right to sell on the free market but imposes strict controls. Minister of Finance Tiouging Abbott said exporters must obtain destination licenses and use non monetary gold of 22 carat fineness or lower. Licenses likely only with convertible exchange, preferably USD. Australian officials caution on market exposure and IMF negotiations, noting South Africa and others have sold processed gold publicly, while Australia maintains a lower fixed price.

Road tax from road haulers urged for roads
Transport Minister Shea Han told the Sydney Parliament that more than £1 million yearly road tax from haulers should fund road building and maintenance rather than railways. He urged the McGirr cabinet to redirect funds, calling current spending an abuse of power. Australia’s sheep population rose to 115,570,000 by March 3, 1951, up from 113,891,000 in 1940, with floods and disease killing 12,000,000 in the year to March 31. Beef cattle rose to 10,428,000. dairy cattle fell to 4,813,000. Official records recognize two British air records: Belfast to Gander in 4h 14m 244s by a Canberra jet bomber, and a 12,000-metre climb in 3m 68.5s by a Meteor at Moredon Valence.
