VOTE OF 56,878,000 PASSED
The .'opportunity to'discuss a variety of subjects when the Imprest Supply Bill (No. 2) was before the House of Representatives yesterday was accepted by snembers, but the greater part of the discussion, which lasted from early afternoon until after midnight, was concerned with matters affecting the primary industries. The farm labour problem and the guaranteed price took pride of place, but such subjects as the stock embargo and the tobacco industry also received attention. The Bill provided for supply for the public accounts until March 31, 1938, and will consequently cover the period over Christmas, when the House will go into.recess. The total amount voted was £6,878,000.
