NEW SOUTH WALES POLLS

PARTY LEADERS’ CAMPAIGNS. POLICY OF COUNTRY PARTY. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. : ‘ ' ' z ' Sydney, Sept. 24. The leader of the Country Party, Mr. Buttensliaw,' delivered a policy speech at Condobolin. He declared that the only issue before tlie electors was the ratification of the Premiers’ agreement to balance the Budget, which was the only way out of the present economical crisis. The Country Party’s watchword, had always been, and still was, to reduce the cost of production. He promised to introduce a better method of marketing primary products, more especially abroad. < 1 The Premier, Mr. T. R, Bavin, speaking at Bondi, said that, unless the Premiers’ financial pact was honoured, he could not see a way at present of paying the Public Service salaries towards the end of the financial year. Air. Lang’s foolish promises were merely humbugging the people. There was an ugly scene after the meeting when, Mr. Bavin was surrounded by an angry mob and almost jostled into his car. The police guarded the gates leading to the hall and prevented a large crowd from gaining admission.
