Peak Hill Railway Route Debate and Proposed Deviations

A New South Wales report analyzes three Narromine to Peak Hill railway routes. The western deviation would serve Tomingley and Bogan River settlers better and widen the western land area with minimal length increase.

Subsidising Friendly Societies via Public Funds

The proposal by Mr Outruthers to subsidise sick funds of Friendly Societies with public money is praiseworthy in principle. If old age pensions deserve support, then thrift deserving members should receive government assistance, lest improvidence be rewarded and thrift penalised. Taxation for pensions comes from Friendly Societies and others, so their claims cannot be ignored. Mr Carruthers notes the State Government plans next Parliament to create annuities linked to Friendly Societies, secure for the annuitant, exempt from bankruptcy, and free from taxes and charges.
