Adams (1935–2015) FRHSV, Councillor (1966– 2005), and to use his bequest of $10,000 to the RHSV in an appropriate manner, the RHSV has created a biennial prize. Since John Adams, a lecturer in Librarianship at RMIT for 27 years, was also the honorary indexer of the Victorian Historical Journal, indexing it for the years 1954–2013, the prize will be for the best article or historical note in the journal over a two-year period, commencing with Issues 287–290 (2017 and 2018). The following terms apply to the prize: • This biennial prize will be awarded for the best article or historical note on Victorian history in the four VHJ issues over two calendar years, beginning 2017–18. • The prize will be awarded for an article or historical note that illuminates a significant element of Victoria’s history, is clearly and succinctly written, and is researched from original material. • Members of the RHSV Publications Committee are ineligible for the award. • The prize offered from the Adams bequest is $300 and three years’ free membership of the RHSV, which includes hard copies of the VHJ. • A short list of five articles will be compiled by the VHJ editors active in the prize period. • Short-listing will occur at the end of each two-year period, beginning in December 2018. • Two judges will be chosen by the Publications Committee from academic and community historians and will report to the Committee by the following April. • The John Adams Prize will be presented biennially at the RHSV AGM following its judging and will be announced in the ensuing June issues of the VHJ and History News. Richard Broome, Chair, RHSV Publications Committee viii Introduction Judith Smart and Richard Broome The articles in this issue of the Victorian Historical Journal span heritage and memory, patriotic fundraising and the pro-conscription campaign during World War I, post–World War II refugee experiences, and the recollections of a regimental officer’s wife in the 1850s. Two historical notes focus on early Melbourne—one on 1840s businessman and merchant Joseph Raleigh, the other on Brighton’s unique street plan of 1841. We pay special homage, too, to Dr Joan Hunt and her major contribution to community history. We begin with Bill Russell’s tribute to Dr Hunt, delivered at her memorial service in Ballarat on 20 September this year, and emphasising her key role in the local heritage and community history movements throughout Victoria. While Joan’s main focus was the Ballarat and Central Highlands region, she also ‘travelled from one end of the state to the other, organising meetings and seminars, talking and communicating, and providing a backbone of good relations among hundreds if not thousands of heritage-minded people across Victoria’. She is irreplaceable but her memory and legacy will endure. The RHSV was privileged this year to hear Professor Stuart Macintrye deliver the society’s Inaugural Weston Bate Oration, published here as ‘History and Heritage’. Since 2015 Professor Macintyre has chaired Victoria’s Heritage Council, the body responsible for adding places to the state’s Heritage Register working in conjunction with Heritage Victoria, a branch of the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. His focus for this lecture was the limitations of the Heritage Council’s powers in relation to local heritage. He also noted ‘the disparity between resources available for places on the VHR and those included in local heritage overlays’; ‘the need for greater capacity at the local level’; and the desirability of ‘a review of the arrangements for local heritage’. Public surveys, he noted, have identified the preservation of local buildings and landmarks as the major popular heritage concern. In his article on ‘The Uiver’, Noel Jackling explores the process of ‘Memory Creation, Loss and Recovery’ arising from the role of the Albury community in ensuring the safe landing and extraction from 205 mud of a Dutch DC-2 aeroplane, known as the ‘Uiver’ or ‘Stork’, in the early morning of 24 October 1934.

    1000 Days to get it right for every child The Netherlands Study Learning from the Netherlands to improve outcomes for New Zealand’s children A report prepared by Rowe Davies Research for Every Child Counts He Mana tō ia Tamati - Every Child Counts He Mana tō ia Tamati - Every Child Counts, formed in 2004, is and coalition of organisations and individuals; led by Barnardos, Plunket, Save the Children, Unicef and Te Kahui Mana Ririki. We believe that a positive, economically sustainable future for New Zealand is only possible if: Children are placed at the centre of government policy and planning Child poverty is eradicated Child maltreatment is reduced Every child is given a good start in their early years The status of children and of the child-rearing roles of fami- lies, whānau, hapū and iwi are increased. 1000 days to get it right for every child The first 1000 days of a child’s life are critical to their long term de- velopment. One thousand days is also approximately the duration of one term of parliament. So we have about 1000 days to get it right. Getting it right in those first 1000 days means today’s young chil- dren are given every opportunity to develop their full potential as healthy, emotionally mature, socially engaged and well-educated, productive adults. Low and ineffective public investment in the early years of child- hood costs us dearly – approximately 3 per cent of GDP. Things need to change. That’s why we are campaigning to make it a priority issue through the 1000 days of this term of parliament.

  • In the Shadow of Metropolitan Planning Local Plan Making in Melbourne, 1946 to 1976
    In the Shadow of Metropolitan Planning Local Plan Making in Melbourne, 1946 to 1976 Dr Benno Engels School of Global, Urban and Social Studies RMIT University Victoria, Australia [email protected] Melbourne has evolved and changed over time in response to the many challenges that this city has faced over the last century and a half. Some of this change was due to forces that lay beyond the control of those who governed it whereas other changes had been guided by local government acts and a handful of metropolitan level strategic plans. Largely absent from the historical narratives that have been written about the planning of Melbourne is what had happened to urban planning at the local level. This is a serious gap in our understanding of Melbourne’s historical urban development when it is remembered that local councils and shires had been charged with enforcing metropolitan strategy since 1955. It was at the local government level that the detailed strategic and statutory planning was undertaken but it was also here at the local level that a city’s capacity to respond to any newly emerging challenges were either expedited or stymied. In an attempt to shed some light on this much neglected facet of Melbourne’s urban planning history this paper proposes to investigate how much urban planning took place at the local level and what forms it took between 1944 to 1976, plus what factors may have impacted upon the local plan making process. Keywords — Local planning schemes; Town and Country Planning Board, Melbourne. INTRODUCTION Daniel Burnham, the famous American architect and urban planner of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, has been quoted as saying, ‘…make no little plans.

  • A Boggy Question Differing Views of Wetlands in 19Th Century Melbourne
    UHPH_14: Landscapes and ecologies of urban and planning history | 617 A Boggy Question Differing views of wetlands in 19th century Melbourne Gary Presland University of Melbourne [email protected] The site of European settlement in the Port Phillip region was a place of many swamps. For the Indigenous population these features were essential to their way of life, for the wide diversity of foodstuffs and raw materials they provided. They were the main support for the meetings of large numbers of the Kulin nation that occurred regularly around the top of the Bay. As the immigrant population of Melbourne increased so too were the indigenes excluded from their customary haunts, and were thus eventually unable to maintain their traditional ways. The immigrant settlers viewed the swamps in a different light: they were a source of disease, and of such little regard they could be used as dumping grounds. As Melbourne grew and the need to improve commercial facilities increased, these areas were progressively transformed into a range of other, more culturally useful forms. The ways in which these wetlands played a part in the histories of both Indigenous and settler populations are examined. Keywords: wetlands, swamps, Eastern Kulin, Melbourne Introduction Swamps or wetlands—whatever term one applies,1 terrestrial features that comprise more or less permanent, but relatively shallow, water—have had an interesting conceptual place in western cultures. Perhaps this is because, unlike other parts of the landscape, they did not fit easily into the natural classification of environment as either land or water (Giblett 1996). Wetlands could not be farmed or built upon; but neither could they be put to the same uses as rivers, lakes or the ocean.

Queens Bridge Street (originally called Moray Street North, along with City Road, provided the main access into South and Port Melbourne from the city when the only bridges available for foot and wheel traffic were the Princes the Falls bridges. The Kearney map of 1855 shows land north of City Road (then Sandridge Road) as poorly-drained and avoided on account of its flood-prone nature. To the immediate south was Emerald Hill. The Port Melbourne railway crossed the river at The Falls and ran north of City Road. By the time of Commander Cox’s 1866 map, some industrial premises were located on the Yarra River bank and walking tracks connected them with the Sandridge Road and Emerald Hill.

  • Imagereal Capture
    A HISTORICAL SURVEY OF THE VICTORIAN CONSTITUTION, 1856 TO 1956 The first Victorian Parliament elected under the provisions of the Constitution Act 1855 met on 21 November 1856. It was celebrated as a great event and the day was proclaimed a holiday. A future Premier of the Colony recorded his impressions of the day's events. 'The Corporation headed by the ~a~or,-theJudges in their-robes, the Town Councillors in their uniforms, the Foreign Consuls looking as like Ambassadors as thev could contrive to do, and the Governor accompanied by a staff and escorted by volunteer cavalry arrived at a chamber crowded with ladies.'l he occasion was n&eworthy in more ways than one. Not only was this the first Victorian parliament to be elected under the regime of responsible government, but Victoria blazed a trail by conducting the election by secret ballot. The legislation enacting ;he secret ballot had been adopted in 1856 by the Legislative Council established in 1850, though not without vehement opposition and expressions of foreboding.' This new- fangled method of voting proved a great success, and the conduct of the election was applauded by contemporary observer^.^ Under the Constitution Act, thirty members were elected to the Legis- lative Councile and sixty to- the A~sembly.~No person was eligible for election to the Legislative Council unless he was thirty years of age and owned freehold property to the value of Egooo or the annual value of The qualification for election to the Assembly was the attainment of the age of twenty-one and the ownership df freehold land to the value 07 Ez,ooo, ors the annual value of ~200.' * M.A., B.C.L.
