Vast empty spaces myth challenged in Bank circular
The Bank of New South Wales circular argues Australia is not sparsely populated and that expansion should focus on existing agricultural regions. It rebuts claims of limitless resources, compares climate and soil with other nations, and urges intensified farming and land development rather than migration hype. The piece notes accompanying tables and maps and includes a jeweller ad at the end.

European tension and German politics viewed by Sydney observer
Mr Marcus Ashton, son of the Bishop of Grafton, in Sydney after studying in England, recalls being in Cologne during the Rhineland march and in Germany during the last election. He argues Europe is worse than 1914 but expects no war in six months, notes rising youth radicalism, and criticizes Goebbels and Goering while praising Hitler nominally. Britain remains pacifist yet wary of military prep. Waste from British Army kitchens yields £10,000 yearly.
