COMMISSIONER SUPREME
SYDNEY, January 5. In replying to a deputation of railway workers, who voiced a number of complaints against the Railway Commissioner, Mr Dacey said that Parliament had put the Commissioner in a position to snap his fingers at the Government. He was tired of receiving deputations concerning him. In this democratic country the people should be supreme, but they were not. If it was in the Government’s power to do so, the present state of affairs would be altered.
