Sydney Squibs on Paris tales and pockets in crime
Readable scraps recount Paris mischief and London style robberies with a Sydney lens. A poet pickpocket Villon, fashion pockets, a dead woman found in a street lamp glow, and tales of rogues, scams, and jailhouse rustics mix with local humor and moralizing.

Prevention of Strikes and New Arbitration Act Provisions
The Government's Arbitration Act aims to curb labor disruption by making strikes or lockouts in specified industries punishable as civil breaches of awards. Penalties include fines and imprisonment for striking without 21 days notice, with continuance penalties for ongoing breaches. Conciliation is abolished, and arbitration court involvement may bind the minority, while recommendations remain non binding.
