Tao he at All Clab be Bou Burn i Danng july 28, 1950bt Friday july 28, 1950 Healing the breach the presence of Australia s prime minister. Or. Menzies in Washington at the present time is extremely opportune. Despite All the confident talk about the outcome of the War in Korea it is Plain that there is an atmosphere of deep concern in and around Congress. President Truman h a s changed his routine Gen eral Omar Bradley the Chic f of staff is the first Man he sees every morning with the Secretary of state or. Dean Acheson a close second. In an atmosphere of that kind it is always reassuring to feel that one has Friend who understand appreciate and sympathise with his problems. Such a Friend the americans will Realise without any sense of inhibition at All they have in or. Menzies. A great Deal of the Good feeling that was created by the War when australians owed their existence As a nation to the overwhelming help that the american gave was undermined by the strange behaviour of the Man who. Later became prime minis Ter and his minister for external affairs. Both of them had been reared in an atmosphere of suspicion re Garding americans to them they were a people who represented the High est development of capital ism and for that reason were dangerous after of course they had Doire their Job in saving the same ministers among others from the japs. It was unfortunate for Australia that old remarkable spirit f of Corn Rad ship which had brr i created and made Tan Gib by the War was dissipated by the politicians whose vision set on Distant things. Passed Over the More important ones right at hand. Only a fool would say that the relationship Between the two nations did not deteriorate after the War. First came the failure to fall in behind Macarthur and March. On Japan despite the pleading of John Curt that the australian Armi should do so. Then can re the death of the Only in in the Cabinet who saw things clearly at the time. The danger was past and attention was Given in tired a to the formation of the United nations which if it were not for the United states now would be As dead As the proverbial door Nail. America wanted to make a big naval base on Manus Island but the minister for external affairs or. Evatt hum hummed about it and the americans lost no time in taking the hint they got out. So to Day on the is land Are the remains of millions of pounds Worth of fighting material still rotting on the Island. The task now is for or. Menzies to seize if he can the great Opportunity and restore in full measure that spirit of close comradeship which was destroyed in the years Fol lowing the saving of Australia. On tuesday next he is to address the Senate and House of representatives at Washington. It is Ai great Opportunity and by the measure in which he rises to it will australian be Able in turn to measure his greatness. Historically it will be a Day of a tremendous significance which if we judge aright will not be lost upon the Man who will speak for Australia and australians direct to the american people on tues Day. £5 for Wethers Merino Wethers auctioned at Brookwell sales last week on account of or.

He volunteered to organise men for work on various roads and Council agreed to take Steps to hire a Taralga owned truck and to provide the ser vices of a Shire employee or. Fleming to.

Some falsehood mingles with All saucers Are Good news writer declares some of t hem Are real the flying saucers Are real they Are made net in Russia Crlin Mars but in the United states and when the . Air Force sees lit to release information on them in vill be Good news. So declares Henry j. Taylor Well known and radio commentator in the August Reader s a lest. The article is condensed from a broadcast. The saucers vary in size Taylor says from Small White disks 20 inches wide to big ones 250 feet across. Nearly All Are round some Are Flat and edged up like saucers others Are raised in the Centre like a Isle. Some Are guided others Are not. They Eunit no Stream of Light or smoke.

Their function is an important military i vaginitis nine out of ten reports of flying saucers Are due to imagination or confusion. Taylor states. But several have been substantiated. Nine flying discs. Sighted Over the Pacific coast of America by United airlines Captain e. J. Smith. Were real five seen Over the Cascade mountains of Oregon were real. So were a Hundred foot Saucer Rel Serveul Over new Mexico in april 1949. And a. .210-footer, so cited Over Madisonville Ken Tucky on january 7, 1048. The Saucer development is a Bli and expanding. Expert mental project which has been progressing in the United states for three Tavor says. It has gone through three stages reaching peaks in pub Lic observation in july 1047, january 1948, and Aprl 1950. The saucers have grown bigger 1 Ith each phase.

Not Cigar shaped nor was it a flying it was a . Navy experimental fighter a great jilt air Plaine of incredible though nearly round its extremely fast flight. Another military secret.

A few Days in the flood area up North until one has seen the North coast and what it is like he does not Realise what the continued Rains have done there it is really or. W. L. Holloway has just returned from a trip to Graf ton. He left Here on monday night and took a plane from Mastt at 7.10 . It was an Pou. the aerodrome had blonde closed Down. The next Landing was coff s Harbour. The whole of the trip was made through Clouds and rain. All beyond Newcastle seemed to be water where once there were Rivers they seemed to be lakes. It was raining when we got to coff s Harbour and we left by bus for Grafton. The roads were open at the time but patches of the Road from two to three Hundred years were under water. When we reached South Grafton we got some idea of. What a flood Means. Maybe the flood has done some Good in cleaning out a lot of the water hyacinth but it did riot make a Nice picture to see it wreathed around Trees and draped Over fences at the show ground. The hyacinth would hang around a tree for a depth of four to five feet. In fact it was sometimes from six to eight feet deep. And although it is a , it was sprouting there the main Street in South Grafton along the River Bank has been cleaned by a Bulldozer. Logs rubbish and the everlasting hyacinth had been pushed to each Side of the Road in great heaps Asp to eight feet High. There were thousands and thousands of tons of rubbish and litter along both sides of the Street. Snakes then there were snakes which had been washed from the scrub Down the River. At Maclean a Chap had a stack of Hay with half. A dozen sheets of Iron Over it. It was out of the reach of the water but he happened to see a Snake Mak ing for it when on a tour of inspection. He pulled a Sheet of Iron on one Side and there he found 11 Black. Snakes. At some of the places every Fence Post seemed to have some kind of Snake on it. People whose Homes have been covered Are concerned about what will happen when the warn weather comes and the snakes begin to look around. In one building or. Biol Loway saw Moss growing inside on the ceiling. Mil Dew had undermined the paint and Moss had seized on the bricks and plaster. It was still raining on wednesday and. Thursday when or. Holloway went to Taree intending to return to Grafton for the races. He left his friends behind. Wherever he went he saw Timber stacked particularly around coff s Harbour. Rail Way transport was out because of the Bridge at Kempsey and the bars at the Mouths of the Rivers were closed owing to the floods. Loggers could not move Timber because As soon As their transport moved out it bogged. When. He was thilking of returning from Trace to Grafton for the races he got a wide from his friends River rising races off we re off the end of the trip but it was an Eye opener to All of them As to the serious and permanent injury the a flood can do. In Grafton they have not had two consecutive dry Days for two months. Mul Waree not Happy about. Shire rates speaking at a meeting of. The mul Waree Shire Council yester Day the Engineer or. H. B. Darke said Council Felt that it had not been Given fair the department of main roads in regard the rates charged for the hire of Plant. He said that due to increased Cost of Lant and Ina Chinery.
