CANNOT PUSH HIM OUT OF THE WAY
SYDNEY, Nov. 1
Plans for a £IOO.OOO weaving mill at Five Dock have had to be drastically altered, because the tenant of a small, battered, two-roomed shop refuses to move and make way for the factory. The shopkeeper, Mr. Bernard Riley, who as an ex-serviceman, is a “protected” person, cannot be evicted. The shop e and all surrounding property is owned by Commonwealth Weaving Mills. Architects of the mill now propose to build over and around Riley’s shop It will occupy a corner of the most modern weaving factory in Australia.
Many of the mill’s operations will be controlled by push-buttons, but there is no button that will push Mr. Riley’s little shop out of the way.
