A CAMERA SITTING
AUSTRALIAN PARLIAMENT
(Rec. 2 p.m.)
SYDNEY,'Aug. 19,
The Prime Minister, Mr. R. G. Menziss, will make a nation-wide broadcast tomorrow night, after he has given Parliament a survey of the international position, particularly as it affects the Pacific.
The emergency meeting of Parliament called by Cabinet to consider the situation in the Far East, and the proposal that Mr. Menzies should go to London, will begin tomorrow.
For most of the day Parliament will sit in camera so Mr. Menzies may give full details of reports received from London, Washington, and Tokio and an account of the naval, military, and air dispositions in the Far East and the Pacific.
