BIG GOLD RUSH
CENTRAL AUSTRALIA. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) (Rec. 7 p.m.) Darwin, October 10. Reports indicate a big rush to Granites before the wet season closes the tracks. Men reach Alice Springs by various means, including aeroplanes, but these cannot land at Granites so gold-seekers have to use trucks or camels or walk to the field where there is only one small store and one well producing a scanty supply of water. Heat, flies and dust render stringent health conditions necessary. Aboriginals in the neighbourhood are said to be acting menacingly.
