Hunger Marchers target capitalism in Australian land schemes

The piece contrasts NSW land settlement pitches with Soviet Russia agrarian reform and British unemployment marches. It cites Crown land parcels, 100000 settlers, and 300000 wage workers as a scheme for capitalist gain. It notes Russian collective farming progress and UK unemployed councils marching on London, framing resistance as essential against landlords and wage exploitation. The author condemns the Nationalist Government schemes and calls for proletarian action.

Consequences of the 44-Hour Week Exposure

The piece argues the 48-hour week was sold as boosting production and jobs, but a Railway Departmental letter dated January 1923 warns temporary laborers will be laid off as staff adjusted after the 48-hour restoration. It claims unions failed to stand for the 44-hour week and predicts more dismissals across industries, with the Commissioners showing the effect.
