Kalamunda Harvest Show Opens Amid Political Toasts
The Acting Premier T L Bath visited Kalamunda on May Day to open the local horticultural show. At the event Mr Sampson, chairman of the Darling Range Road Board, roused the crowd with a critique of opposition tactics, arguing government efforts to aid the north and support for agriculture and industry were mischaracterized by rivals. He defended road, sea, and coastal transport needs, praised road votes, and highlighted increased funding for advisory and inspection work, plus £10,000 for cooperative export efforts, while noting rising opposition.
