CHILD ENDOWMENT
N.S.W. SCHEME MAY BE DROPPED Sydney, January 21. At a meeting of the Parliamentary Labour Caucus, the Premier (Mr. J. T. Lang) stated that the Government was concerned over the question of the constitutionality of the proposed child endowment scheme, and that the Attor-ney-General (Mr. McTicrnan) had gone to Melbourne to consult constitutional authorities thereon. The feeling generally amongst Labour members is that the Bill will be dropped as it cannot legally be applied to the children of workers within the State who are governed by Federal awards.
