He was elected on a plat- 'form of maintenance of a high "standard of living, reduction of lerest payments on debts, and ) wage cuts, as against the pro- mme of economy and retrench- ent of former premier Thomas 'Rainsford Bavin, Mr. Lang spoke of repudiating debt interest payments, particul- 'larly 'those going to Great Britain, for some time before his election and -he is carrying out the policy now. On miany occasions he has waxed bitter over the interest pay- ments and finally he defaulted payments of more than $3,000,- 000 due in London on April 1. At the same time a much smaller amount was paid in New York. The default however was more of a blow at the Commonwealth La- bor Government than anybody else, for the Commonwealth Gov- ernment is legally liable for the payments. And on April 1 there- fore the Commonwealth took the burden, then commenced a legal battle to recover the amounts from New South Wales. Asks Respite Premier Lang puts his debt pol- icy this way: If the "British fin- ancial interests" which always figure in his speeches, will extend to Australia the same measure of debt cancellation or reduction that Great Britain gave to some of her Allies after the war, then Austra- lia would be given a respite of two or three years and at the end of that time would be able and willing to pay her just commit- ments.

Hon. Mr, Lang has now incur- red the «¢ ion of all other state covernme federal ministry parties. Extremists monwealth party, following Mr. Tang's leadership, have definitely broken with the bulk of the La- bor Party. Two left-wing members af the cabinet were removed by Premier James Scullin, And yet for some weeks the extremists kept the government in power in close divisions at Canberra, When the premiers' conference assembled at Melbourne in Feb- ruary Mr. Lang made a bold bid for general adoption of his radi- cal policies, The conference was more or less shocked and Mr. Lang was bitterly assailed for speeches that were described as working havoc with the common- wealth's credit abroad. In the end the ofher premiers flatly rejected his proposals. On the other hand, when the New South Wales labor party assembled at Easter, there were forthcoming even more radi- cal policies than those of Mr. Lang. The conference indeed pass- ed a resolution calling for a three- year plan, something on the lines of the Soviet's five-year plan-- to vest in a "people's government" the control and administration of specified industries, the banks and other services. Two days later however the conference reversed the decision in favor of Premier Lang's own policy of "socialization of industry," which, while some- what similar in aim, was yet not so extreme as the original resolu- tion. Mr. Lang was born at Sydney on Dec. 21, 1876. He was mayor of Auburn for two years before he entered the legislative assembly In 1913. He represented Granville until 1920, then Parramatta un- til 1927. and again became pre- mier following the 'state elections on Oct. 25. 1930. Battle With Council Since his second term in the rremiership, Hon, Mr. Lang has heen fighting an uncreasing bat- tle with the upper house, the leg- islative council, in which there ia an antagonistic majority. Charg- ing the upper house with con- tinual blocking tactics, he prompt- ly asked Governor Sir Philip Game to approve the appointments of 40'new members, so the upper house could abolish itself. The governor refused to approve the appointments, and the chamber secured an injunction against any abolition measure, The state court found that aholition was a consti- tutional matter which could only be dealt with by a referendum, and the premier's appeal to the High Court of Australia was dis- missed. Then Mr. Lang declared he would ask London to recall the governor, but this project was dropped. The commonwealth government, more and more uneasy at Premier Lang's extreme policies, set up a 11 other political in the Com- new 'Labor organization in 'he state.

It was a dark night, no stars were showing overhead, and, to make matters worse, a wild gale was tearing across the countryside and uprooting great trees which had stood 200 years, writes Oliver G. Pike F.Z.8., in this article in Pearson's Weekly. The fox could not see many yards in front of him, but his nose told him all he wanted to know. The scent of a fox will tell him there is a human being standing 100 yards away; it will inform him that phea. sants have chosen a new spot in the wood in which to roost. His scent is his guide throughout life. The Farm at his Mercy It was a terrible night, but his knowledge of woodcraft told him there would be plenty of food about and he was hungry, so was prepared to run the risk of coming upon an enemy. However,, he got over tnis to a great extent by working against Lone Fox Raids F arm And Much havoc Is Wrought the wind, but it was as much as he could do to make his way in the teeth of the gale, On this particular night he seem- ed to know that the most likely spot to obtain a meal® would be around the farms. He could work in close without the watchdogs scenting him, for he knew to within a few inches where they were sta- tioned. Close to one farm was a 50- acre field in which there were many poultry-houses, and it was this that he was making his way. As he crept through the hedge on the south side a great elm crashed down; not far off another followed. He crouched under the lee of the hedge until the noise of breaking timber ceased, then tried to work his way to the open field. Luck was favoring him, for there was another crash, and a large poultry-house was carried bodily for 30 yards. Then it broke up.

He ate until he could manage no more, then turned his attention among the wreckage of their home. When a fox is satisfied, and still sees game before him, his killing lust seems to be aroused. This oc- casion was no exception, for he worked towards the fowls and be- gan to slaughter them. Some, too scared to move, allowed him to de his work quickly, for he gave just one hite on the neck and left them dead. Others tried a fighting chance Soon after daybreak the farmer and I visited the scene. The houses were smasked to pieces, and we picked up 95 dead eockerels and Duttets, while many more were miss- ng. El AMOTIOD[D Labor party" come into being af- paradoxically, moderate treme Labor while other parties lcolked on. In April the newly tablished party warned labor unions and leagues that they ould he declared "bogus" if they failed to alien themselves with the party. In other words, Fed- al moderate labor is willing to rick splitting the unions to assert ils authority in the state. Federal mombers of parliament who have upported the ministry will be as- | «ired of their status in the gen- ral elections, when, if they are if the state will be given a clear opportunity to express their deci- sion -on the Lang policies. And the extreme labor party met this threat with the establish- ment of an "army formation", to combat, as some of the more out- spoken members have declared, violence with violence. Going far beyond the most extreme of radi- cal plans that figured in the elec- tion campaign, Premier Lang's supporters fling about such state- ments as '"'the present system must end but with the least possible bloodshed'; . "The Labor army must become what the Red Army became in Russia," and "the work- ing class must realize that if they are going to fight, it will be with machine-guns not ballot boxes." It might be going too far to say that Premier Lang cympathizse with these developments; certain it is that he has not given assur- ances to the contrary. Evowedly to combat "Red" tendencies, a sort of Fascist organization {is growing up under cover in New South Wales, And .a secession movement has started in the northern part of the state, seek- ing to create the new state of New England.
