GAIR: If I do not receive that courtesy and attention to which I am entitled when I am answering a question, I will cease to answer it. In such circumstances I do not think I am required to do so. Mr. SPEAKER: That is the hon. gentle man's privilege. Mr. GAIR: ''The expansion successfully fostered by the Government will produce a crop of approximately 1,200,000 tons of sugar in a normal year. The Sugar Board is the Crown instrumentality charged with the responsibility of financing, transporting and selling this ~ugar within Australia and overst>as. Prior to 1943, this board had a full-time chairman. Since then the sugar crop has more than trebled in volume and value. New lands have been brought under the plough and mills have an extensi\·e capital programme of increased milling capacity. The Sugar Board is one of the most important Crown instrumentalities and is carrying additional responsibility and work. The Government have already announced their reasons for separating the functions of the two boards. The chair· man will continue to earn and receive his present salary, which will not be paid from Consolidated Revenue, but will be provided out of funds contributed by the sugar industry.''

Queensland Railway Guide
_,,, , a.)1u u Z).1,A:121 - -- QUEENSLAND RAILWAY& TOURISTS'GUI DE, COMPILED UNDER INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE QUEENSLANDRAILWAY COMMISSIONERS, ByA. MESTON. WITH MAP AND 22 ILLUSTRATIONS. CONCISE HISTORY OF THE COLONY, AND COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF ALL COUNTRY TRAVERSED BY THE RAILWAY LINES, WITH INTERESTING EXTRA INFORMATION FOR TOURISTS , TRAVELLERS, AND ALL OTHER CLASSES. j3Ub ti ,sh xz : GORDON GOTCH, QUEEN STREET , AND RAILWAY BOOKSTALLS, BRISBANE. A ND AT SYDNEY , MELBOURNE , AND LONDON. This is a blank page AUTHOR'S PREFACE. WHEN the Queensland Railway Commissioners asked me to under- take the preparation of a Railway and Tourists' Guide, I recognised at once the honour of their confidence, and also the grave responsi- bility of so important a work. The chief problem before me was condensation. The picture was vast, the canvas limited. In a book of 1176 pages there can only be a highly concentrated view of so immense a territory as Queensland, such varied scenery, and such boundless resources. With the exception of the chapter on "Coal," and "Cook- town to the Gulf," the whole of the work has been written by myself ; all information the result of my own research, and all description from my own personal observation in a general tour over the whole of the Colony. There was special care to ensure accuracy of historical information and descriptive details, so that the whole could be issued to the public as a reliable work qualified for educational purposes. before me was the clearly apparent public duty to make the book strictly impartial to all parts of the Colony, and also sternly guard against everything in the nature of an advertisement for any trade, profession, business, or individual.
