Health and Prosperity It has been objected by cer­ tain individuals that the sewi||age proposal which is now engag­ ing the attentnion of the admin­ istrative body and the commun­ ity is likely to distract attention from the paramount necessity of securing good roads. So far as we are concerned we can see no conflict between the two questions, and our advocacy of sewerage in no degree lessens our insistence on the importance of good roads to' the district. In youthful aspirations good health and prosperity are usually joined as twin ambitions, and from the community point of view, whilst good roads may he regarded as the avonuo leading to prosperity, sewerage is the best safeguard of the commimity’s health. In our news columns we publish the views of representa­ tive citizens, including those whose professional opinion must carry weight, stressing the value of sewerage, and we hesitate to think that these gentlemen are, because of their advocacy of sewerage, oblivious to the impor­ tance of good roads. At its meet­ ing next Monday night the Shire Council will he called on to make two important decisions: The re­ jection or acceptance of the Gov­ ernment's sewerage proposals, and the adoption of the year’s road programme. We trust, in­ deed we believe, that each ques­ tion will' he dealt with on its merits, and_^lh^ the,clqlipi^ii Qne •win not he allowed from the importanci

A very fair attendance of riflemen were present from Wagga, Cootamundra, Uhgarie, 61st Battery, Boree Creek, Narrandera, Leeton, and an In­ terstate Club, at the Griffith Club’s shoot o;t Boxing Day. From a shooter's point of view the day opened perfectly, ' and remained so until the completion of the shoot at 300 yards range. At the 500 yards range conditions were difficult, and many good shots registered poor scores, owing to the severity of the mirage, intermingled with two or three good sharp showers. The last range, namely 600 yards, opened in showery conditions, but towards th e finish these conditions improved. In all, about 55 riflemen competed, being nine less than last year’s total of 64 shooters. Results were as follows: —

The fatality occurred at a point in the canal close to the old Police Station where two previous drowning fatalities have occurred. The children had been left alone at home whilst their mother went shopping, and in her absence they went to the canal. Nobody actually saw them in the water, but the ir clothes (were found lying on the bank, and after the alarm had been given their \jnclad bodies were found lying face downwards in five feet of water by men from the surrounding camps. The Police and the Government Medical Officer (Dr. Bodycomb) were early on the scene, but efforts at resuscitation were fruitless. An enquiry was held by the Coroner on Friday, when a finding of acci­ dental death was recorded.

This Is an anxious period for ratepayers, for the local govern­ ment bodies are considering the levying of the rates. Carrathool Shire Council's somewhat drastic proposal to double the rates was modified after the ratepayers had expressed determined opposition to the proposal.

It is certainly an inopportune time to propose increases in taxation, but the position of most local govern­ ing bodies is so serious that drastic remedies appear to be necessary.

The proposal which will be made to Wade Shire Council by Cr. J. H. Kelly that the Council make a request to the Irrigation Commission that the remnants of the reserve on the northern side of Banna Avenue, in the eastern section, be thrown open for busi­ ness sites is one that will com­ mand general public support, and which should be but the prelude to a persistent agitation against the whole town lands policy of the Irrigation Commission.

T h e A rea N e w s Griffith, Tuesday, January 29, 1935

T he W ater Supply The people of Griffith might be likened, if one were to exaggerate a little, to the company of that famous ship who, with water everywhere, had not a drop to drink; for the town water sup­ ply in this centre of abounding water is quite inadequate to the needs of the browing community. In rnid-summer, the peak months of the year so far as de­ mand for water is concerned, the supply is scanty, and throughout the year the water supplied from the town reservoir is unsatisfac­ tory. It is always discoloured, sometimes redolent of the weed growths which infest the chan­ nels, and never attains to that limpid purity of which fresh water is supposed, by poets and others, to be the embodiment. There are times, particularly in the early summer, when the town water supply is so dirty that It is not merely unfit to drink, but is even unsuitable for the or­ dinary domestic requirements, reddish brown in colour and dis­ tinctly odorous. The majority of the dwellings in the town are provided with tanks, and rain water is used for all domestic purposes, the town water supply being diverted to the gardens, where the inarticulate flowers cannot protest. Without settling tanks Or any system of filtration, th e town water supply Is virtual­ ly drawn straight from the Open channels.

The principal functions connected with the Premier’s visit to Griffith we.e the opening c* the cold store at the Griffith Prod ic.irs, where t h j Piemier stressed the value of ro-operalion in the organi­ sation of the primary indiistrss, and at the Cwi« Dinner on F r id a / evening, at which Mr. Stevens was officially welcomed to the Area. Another interesting function attended by Mr. Stevens was the laying of a commemoration tablet at the Council Chambers, now in course of erection, and at which, ¡n the course of a brief speech, the Premier foreshadowed further assistance to the Shire for «pad works, referring specifically to the Leeton-Griffith road Large and representative gatherings were present at each func tion and the Premier received a cordial welcome everywhere. He made no disclosures of future policy affecting the irrigation areas.

Mr. J. G. Youll was a notable ab sentee from the functions on Friday in connection with the Premier’s visit. Mr. Youll was at Burrenjuck Dam on official business.

Recent prosecutions launched by the Forestry Department against unauthorised persons for having cut and removed timber from the reserves in the vicinity of the township suggest that the responsible authorities are more vigilant than had been feared. It is to be hoped that the campaign for the preservation of the natu­ ral timber on the outskirts of the town will be continued vigorously, and that it may awaken public opinion to a realisation of the im­ portance of preservina the trees.

So far as the irrigation lands generally are concerned the in­ digenous trees have been de­ stroyed and replaced by imported trees and vegetation,, and the loss has been more than recouped in the exchange. But surrounding the township, especially to the north and east, there are a series of reserves which, if they are de­ nuded of trees, will make a bare and forlorn background for the township. There are scores of townships in the western districts of the State which are nothing more than rows of shops and houses set on a dusty plain. They are omens of the “curse of galvanised iron” which Henry Lawson de­ clared had been laid on the Aus­ tralian countryside. Griffith is fortunate in its situation, for the town is surrounded by the ver­ dant, fruitful fields of the irriga­ tion farms and orchards. The town itself is distinguished and beatTtined by the 'lawns and gar­ dens »n^^pVjShues of trees which the civic a u t h o r itg j |a s provided. It would be a thousand pities 'f the town’s surroundings, the lands between the town boundar­ ies and the farms, were to become barren and forlorn. T he pines and other indigenous trees of the district are not imposing or dis tinguished, but they provide the countryside with its only natural adornment and they cover Scenic Hill and its foothills with an evergreen and becoming mantle. If the hillside to the north and the flats to the east of Griffith are to be stripped bare of trees, Griffith will have lost much of its natural charm, and one which it will be beyond the resources of the civic authority to replace. That the danger that the re­ serves may be stripped bare is a real one must be obvious to any­ body who walks or drives through the reserves. Hundreds of trees have already been destroyed, and there are areas of considerable size on the hillsides which, once heavily wooded, are now bare and featureless. Campers and town dwellers alike have been responsible for this destruction, which, until quite recently, ap­ peared to go on unchecked. These timber reserves are under the control of the Forestry Depart­ ment, of which the Irrigation Commission is the local agent. The Commission was accused of laxity in its stewardship, but whilst every passer-by was al­ lowed to pitch his tent in these wooded retreats on the slopes of the hill the destruction of trees was inevitable. The deterrent of the heavy penalties imposed on offenders in the Police Court recently and the prolnise of a more vigilant official surveillance of the reserves In fu­ ture engender the hope that the trees may yet be saved. The real safeguard of the trees, however, is not through official vigilance or the long arm of the law, but in the public conscience. Unless the general public is brought to realise that these tim­ ber reserves are an asset to the town, a common possession of the citizens, no paid foresters or rangers can save them. There are scores of towns scattered through N.S.W. in which the trees and natural background have been destroyed In the haste of rapid development. To-day they are repenting In dust and In ugliness.

TREAD

C h e c ^ s k id ’ T y R E Barnel Class “Checkskid” is n tyre designed especially fur today’s gruelling tratfac conditions—of high speed travel over harder, smoother road surfaces. Its extra breadth of tread, which contains more actual rubber, gives extra road grip .. . extra safety . . . extra mileage. Its extra d e p t h of tread gives longer non-skid tyre-life . . . increased economy . • • immunity from skids and slipping. In Barnet Glass “Checkskid,” you also get the advantages of heat resisting design, which reduces the tendency to generated heat, the main cause of tyre destruction; unique carcase construction, which gives extra sidewall flexibility; and superimposed buttresses which strengtheu the shoulders and support this new “more-rubber” tread.

For Consideration There is a question raised In our news columns by a corres­ pondent which is of lively interest to the whole community. It is the matter of the introduction of fruits and vegetables into the irrigation areas from outside dis­ tricts. It has been discussed, of course, on many occasions, and various and conflicting views have been expressed; but it is doubt­ ful whether the existing position satisfies anybody.

That same morning he had sent for Mr. Furby and it had been arranged that he should continu« with his ViO; k and repay the money by instai ents. The tecond letter, found by his bedside vn the morning of his deat'h, was addressed to his sister and appealed to her to settle his debts. “This is my last request.

AREA Rafael Sabatini's latest novel. “Venetian Mosque,” is In his usual style and will not disappoint any of his admirers. The author takes as his period the anxious moments when Napoleon was sweeping with his revolutionary armies through Italy. The ancient State of Venice was rul­ ed by a vacillating doge who could not decide to preserve an effective and armned neutrality or to join with Austria. History shows that he wait ed overlong. Mr. Sabatini builds up a romance in which there 'are duels assasinations, spies and love. The hero, of course, nearly loses his be­ loved to the vtllian, but ultimately wins her. We presume that they liv­ ed happily ever after. (Johnson's Library).

Mr. and Mrs. Shipton, said Mr. Bradbury, had been devoted supporters and active work­ ers for the show.

Grifflth, Friday, February 15, 1935

There is something infectious in the enthusiasm of the return­ ed soldier community for the Anzac Day project, the massed descent on Sydney by the return­ ed soldiers of the State for the commemoration of the tw entieth a n n iv m a ry of Anzac. The sch­ eme seems to have caught the imagination of the entire com­ munity, and the Government has made the scheme practicable by granting free transport facilities to all ex-service men, so that, as nearly as possible, every man whose high privilege it is to share in this great national celebration may have the oppor­ tu n ity to do so. I t is an ex­ penditure which the taxpayer will readily endorse.

I t is not surprising to learn th a t as many as five hundred exservice men are expected to make up the Griffith contingent, for this is essentlially a returned soldier community, and the spirit of comradeship is strong and vigorous here. The Soldiers League has always, from the be­ ginning of the soldier settlem ent, been the most active organisa­ tion on the Area, and it is not too much to say th a t every con­ cession wrung from a reluctant authority was won by the vigoiu:, the determination and the organ­ isation of the League. In such a community, the sentiment and the tradition of the A.I.F. cannot ,languish, and perhaps nowhere in the State is The anticipation of the great Anzac Day re-union more glad and eager than It is in Griffith and Yenda. But even from isolated ■fuFaT'cenTies, where ex-servicemen are few and scat­ tered, come reports of lively in­ terest in the proposal th a t every returned soldier in the State should muster in Sydney to com­ memorate the tw entieth anniver­ sary of the Landing, and to par­ ticipate in the greatest re union of ox-servicemen th a t has ever taken place in Australia. The occasion will become an historic event of national slgnificgjice.

Sorry - But No Complaints BARRED MEMBERS SAY FAREWELL Final Meeting At Hospital

P e rs o n a l Mrs. Constance Bailey, mother of Mrs. J. E. W ard, of Yoogall, died at Burwood, Victoria, early this week. She was in her eighty-fifth year. The Rev. W. G. Bennett, rector of St. Albans, is spending his annual va­ cation in Victoria. Mr. Bennett drove to Victoria accompanied by Mrs. Ben­ nett and th e ir son, Peter. The latter is to remain at a boarding school in the southern State.

The sadness of farewell was th e 'th e m e of the meeting of the Board of Management of the Griffith D istrict Hospital on Tuesday night, when among those present at the final meeting of the old Board were three members, Messrs. J. F. Hayes, W. J. Carney and D. H. Taylor, jun., who, as storekeepers, are debarred from seeking election to the newly-constituted Board. On Tuesday night each of the three gentlemen affected expressed his regret at his compulsory retirem ent from hospital affairs, promis­ ing continued interest in and support of the Hospital. One of the Government nominees to the new Board, Mr. P. Skeet, said th a t though in other districts conditions may have w arranted the embargo on storekeepers, it had never been so in Griffith, w here the business community had served the hospital faithfully and well. O ther mem­ bers spoke in appreciation of the services to the Hospital of Messrs. Carney, Hayes and Taylor.

Let us assume th a t you are a m arried man. You have feátablished a fam ily and a home, and with them some responsibilities. Those responsibilities need never be I financial anxieties if ygu plan aright. When you have , made proper provision against the possibilities of illness or D eath breaking up the fam ily life, all anxiety vanishes. , » ■ There, is the education of the children. Will there be money for th a t? There is the m ortgage o n ,th e home. '■ W hat would happen in regard to tlrnt, if you were to die suddenly? The dread and fea r of these possibilities can ^ be provided against through the A.M.P., and, when you have made proper provision, anxiety vanishes. 4 When every risk of income or of death has been provided against through A.M.P. membership, you are free to live. You have been thinking of others; now, you can think of your own future: an income for your old ape; money for holidays; money, perhaps, for a trip overseas, or for some purpose you have been dream ing about. Your needs may be different from yopr neighbour’s, but you should provide for them. You should ask the nearest ’ A.M.P. office to devise a Plan for your special needs; to send an experienced counsellor to explain the Plan. This will p u t you under no obligation whatever.

Griffith, Tuesday, March 5, 1935

The Wine Compromise Inevitably the great majority of Area growers of wine grapes will be disappointed at the prices they are to receive for their pro­ duct this season, for the small in­ crease in price will not compen­ sate them for the losses sustain­ ed in the frost blight in the spring. It is estimated, roughly, that this year’s harvest will be between six and seven thousand tons, or barely half the average vintage. With an increase in price of perhaps 15/- a ton all round, the loss is still a serious one for the majority of growers.

which actually controls the whole Australian rice industry, and which can, and does, in the inter­ ests of the grower and the indus­ try, exercise a strict control.

And a local Board cannot ac­ complish that. The most that it can do is to represent, as forcibly as prudence will permit, the in­ terests of local growers. That much, it may be assumed, it has done.

FARMERS’ ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of the Ballan dry branch of the Farmers and Settl­ ers’ Association was held in Ballan­ dry Hall last Sunday. There was a good attendance of members, presid­ ed over by Mr. A. Marcus. The Secretary's report showed that very rea'I service had been rendered during the year by the branch. Larg­ ely due to its efforts, as correspon­ dence shows, was the payment direct to stay order farmers of the wheat bounty. At the beginning of the year the Farmers' Relief Board desired to take Into account soldiers’ pensions In fiking the amount of store orders tor soldier settlers. This problem was also tackled, the aid of the R.3.S.I.L.A. was Invoked and a satis­ factory conclusion arrived at. The branch can also claim th at it was well to the front in the battle for an enquiry into the affairs of south-western settlers. Satisfaction was also felt that after working defi­ nitely towards that point for three years the Griffith District Council of the F. and S. Association was re­ suscitated. A noteworthy event during the course of the year was a visit from , the members of the Griffith branch to the Country Party. The officers of this branch have been consistently helpful to the Ballandry F. and S. branch, and its members desire to re­ cord their sincere thanks. NEW OFFICERS

W hat Are We Waiting For Now ? It is not announced how long the various departments which are meddling in the Government’s sewerage proposals, as they af­ fect Griffith, propose to hold up the start of work on this public utility, which has received the endorsement of the Shire Counon behalf of the people of the dis­ trict. But experience, especi­ ally Area experience, suggests that it may be a very long time. Government departments are im­ placably patient.

BEST OFFER Council’s Tractor Purchase Special Meeting’s Decision The purchase of a new tractor and grader for use on Wade Shire ;o.ids has occupied the attention of the Council for several weeks, in-. \olving, before a decision was reached on Monday night, a trip to Syd­ ney by Crs. Jensen (President) and Swales. As a result of th a t visit amended tenders Were submitted by a num­ ber of Firms, and on Monday night the Council, after consideration of the tenders in committee, accepted the quotation of the British Stand­ ard Machinery Company Ltd. for the supply of a 35-40 Cletrac tractor, of the latest model, and a new grader.

P erson al The death took place at a private hospital in Sydney last week of Mr. Burleigh Gorman, formerly well known on the Area. Mr. Gorman was sixty-six years of age. The late Mr. Gorman came to the Area in the early days and was employed as a saddler by the Irrigation Commission. Later he established hlmseltf in busi­ ness in Griffith, leaving here in 1923 for New Guinea, where he prospered with the development of the gold fields. Mr. Gorman was a keen sportsman and he was an active member of the Griffith Race Club. H was a returned soldier, having seen service with the A.I.F. in New Guinea.

Griffith, Tuesday, March 12, 1935

Town Problems Governmental policies concern­ ing the Irrigation Area have been in a continual state of evolution. New ideas and experiments in this, as in all other human enter­ prises, have compelled modiflcatione to be introduced, till at times the original conception may seem forgotten. The present Government has announced on several occaeions through its Min­ isters that its policy is to make this Area self supporting, that its aim and object is to transfer to settlers and local authorities as much control as is possible. The bills introduced into Parliament and passed by it at the end of last year were ostensibly for that purpose, and during recent visits of politicians much stress has been laid on the fact that we must be enabled to control our own destinies. The Area has for many years desired nothing but this, and it is to be hoped that this principle will be preserved intact among the many changes which future years will necessarily In­ troduce. The writing-down of farm block values was approved of last year in accordance with this policy. It was realised th at the settlers could fwvcr hope to carry the bur­ dens originally placed upon them and that a g^ijirfl reduction of overhead'‘ehs(r(FMr%ai essential if the settlers were to be rendered self supporting. Much has been already done for the farm hold­ ers, though no-one imagines that the work is yet complete. The time has now arrived when the Government must consider the town’s difficulties. These have been compelled to await the eluci­ dation of the more weighty prob­ lems, but their turn has arrived at last. Man, in common with the rest of the animal kingdom, requires food and shelter, and of a be­ fitting nature. We have around us food in abundance, and in the town itself we have wide open sapees, empty land on which dwellings could be erected to suit our means Unfortunately, the Government has retained control of these lands, and by releasing them for building in small quan­ tities only, has created artificial land values. We published a t the beginning of last month reports from Gundagai, Temora, Young, West Wyalong, Hay, Junee and Narrandera showing that land in Griffith for residential purposes costs about three times as much as in those towns. From enquir­ ies made since that time it is learnt that rents of cottages are nearly proportionately higher. It used to be said that onesixth of a man’s earnings could be devoted to rent. This was ac­ cepted as the basis of computing wages and the requirements cf wage-earners. In Griffith, were anyone limited to this scale of expenditure, he would be fortun­ ate to be enabled to rent one room in which he would then house his entire family. A recent census within the proposed sewerage area In the town disclosed that the number of inhabitants per house in Grif­ fith is higher than in any part of the State outeide the metropoli­ tan area, where flats and tene­ ment buildings raise the average dwellers per building. This position, we affirm, is due to the Government’s policy of withholding land and exploiting the land hunger which ensues. The artificial values of our resi­ dential blocks must be abolished, and the married townspeople must be enabled to found and build their own homes. Till some­ thing is done to relieve this ser­ ious distress, we can feel no confidence in the Government’s professions. Another real problem has re-

Three Mysterious Fatalities Man Falls Dead At Family Table Cyclist’s Body Found On Roadside Police Prefer Charge Against Car Driver Old Man Dies At Work Death visited Griffith during the week-end, stalking mysteriously and tragically through the settlement. On Saturday evening a young man, aged only twenty-six and apparently . in perfect health and bright spirits, dropped dead as he sat down to the evening meal at the farmhouse where he was employed. On Sunday night a man’s body was found lying on the Wilbriggie Road. His neck was broken and his ribs crushed. The body was discovered by three youths who were cycling homewards. Close to where the body lay the man’s bicycle was found lying, and appar­ ently undamaged. This mysterious fatality was made the subject of intensive police investigation, and late last night the members of a picnic party, who on Sunday night had motored home from Darlington Point, were taken to the Police Station and questioned by the Police. After statements had been made by several members of the party, a young man was arrested and charged with manslaughter. Then on Monday morning the third of this grim mysterious series took place when an elderly man dropped dead at his work on a Griffith farm. The victim s of these tragic occurrcHces wtr.ib—> Norman McLeod, aged 26, recently come to the Area from the Gosford district, who on Saturday night dropped dead at the table at a Bilbul farm where he was employed; Albert Ernest Roberts, aged 39, employed at Kooba Station, whose dead body, with the neck and several ribs broken, was found lying be­ side his bicycle on the Willbriggie Road on Sunday night; And. James Gambell, an elderly man, who dropped dead on Mon­ day morning whilst at work on a Griffith farm, where he was engag­ ed loading cases of apples on to a lorry.

P erson al Sister Willis, who recently resign­ ed her position of senior sister at the Griffith District Hospital owing to ill-health, has been reappointed to the nursing staff. Sister Willis has been restored to good health by a lengthy holiday. At last week’s special meeting of Wade Shire Council an apology for absence was receive^ from Cr. W. D. Bull, who has been suffering from a severe throat affection. Mr. L. W. Furby, of L. W. Furby and Co., Yambil Street, left on Fri­ day for Sydney, where he will spend a brief holiday.

ment department. The Public Works Department announces the impossibility of proceeding with the sewerage scheme till the Shire Council assumes control of the town water supply. We are quite prepared to control our own destinies—and our own water supply. But we are not prepared to buy an unsatisfactory service except on an economic basis which would allow us to improve and extend it without raising the already high water rates. It is as yet too early for us to know what price will be asked for the tr a ns fe / of the supply, but past experience has taught us to an­ ticipate a demand for a big sum of money. We have accepted the policy— “ Let the Area become self sup­ porting.” We have presented two problems which can be solved to everyone’s satisfaction according to that policy. But the Govern ment alone can apply it.
