Election results in Numurtah Central Riding show close contest
Voters cast a large share of the roll in Numurtah’s Central Riding with F George Moss and M Hooper each polling similar totals. Moss, the former member, and Hooper, both from Kaarumba, faced a tight race amid a cordial campaign and a council seat vacancy caused by a death. Moss acknowledged the verdict and vowed to serve ratepayers fairly, while Hooper and Moss thanked supporters as the count confirmed the majority for Fair in nearby Shire races.

Striking feature in new Commonweal loan
Investors in the new Com Monwraith loan gain a better deal than the 1918 issue. Any holder of a seventh war loan 5 per cent bond redeemable on September 5 may convert to the present issue at the same rate and receive a cash bonus of £2 per £100 converted. The security offers a handsome interest rate amid falling government yields, with security remaining paramount.
