Shortage of Firewood Prompts Manilla Council Action
Manilla council considered asking the Liquid Fuel Control Board to empower police to issue petrol tickets for wood carriers. A letter from the Manilla Labor League highlighted severe firewood shortages as wood carters reportedly misused tickets. The Acting Mayor and Aldermen debated direct police discretionary power to ensure wood delivery, with support and calls for a public meeting. The motion to proceed was carried unanimously amid broader fuel and transport concerns.
