Australians face policy shifts in wartime era press
A column criticizes a paper’s alleged Australian outlook and urges a Wheat and Wool Growers’ note to influence policy. It notes Mulwala NSW nearing completion of a water supply project and Coreen Shire Council debating whether to invite a minister for a ceremonial opening. The writer mocks grand openings and other pomp, arguing politicians should focus on duties rather than opening fairs or events during the war.
