Toklo official radio broadcast a speech by Captain Hlralde, spokesman for the Japanese Navy, in which he discussed the submarine attack on Sydney.

The fact that Sydney was the target for a bewildering Japanese assault must surely awaken Australians to the utter weakness of Australian defence, under the so-called American protection. "The supply route from the United States to Australia is on the verge of severance, and If Australia now falls to manifest an inclination to recon sider soberly her past policy towards Japan, then the Australian mainland will surely be plunged into the horrors ot war."

AjW-J BATTLE OF THE "CAULDRON" Air Leader's View LONDON, June 7 (A.A.P.). Air Vice-Marshal Con Ingham, In an Interview with a correspondent of the "Sunday Times," stressed the vital character of the battle in the cauldron," which, he said, would decide the outcome of this campaign. "The enemy must be getting pretty worried about his vaunted Stuka dive bombers," said Vice-Marshal Conlng-ham. "The Allied pilots, during the first nart of the uresent battle, con centrated against tanks and Infantry, ana uia aamnea wen. jnow we ve got the edge on the enemy, and the boys have time for other pursuits.

I have had tnem out Stuka hunting recently around Blr Hakheim, and they have done a pretty piece of business to tho.se overrated Nazi crates. The Germans at present are getting debutantish about bringing out me tunas. Vice-Marshal Con in eh am does not: like the Germans. "These Nazis are very truculent." he said. "I don't speak to them when they are brought in, mere are aireaay euougn mots on the desert landscape, without my seeing any moie unnecessarily.

What I am interested in is killing as many as possible, and these are my orders to my pilots. "The enemy possesses plenty of planes. There were 230 at Mar tuba alone last Thursday night. Benghazi is crowded with ships unloading about 2000 tons daily. But we are not worried.

It will be grand booty when we reach It." WHEAT PLAN Proposed Payment of 4- Discussing the wheat position in Melbourne on Saturday, the Assistant Minister of Commerce (Senator Fraser) said the Government had not yet considered the plan for dealing with next season's wheat crop. The basis of that plan was that 4 a bushel be paid at the nearest siding or silo for up to 3000 bushels (1000 bags). Tills compared with the price of 310. which, less freight and charges to the seaboard, brought the i.o. o.

price 10 aoouc 61. The Minister denied 'a suggestion that the Government had not ful filled Its obligation to the wheat glowers in respect of wheat in excess oi i4u.uuu.uuu uusneis. Mite iormer Minister of Commerce (Sir Earle Page), he said, had not at anv time provided for a separate pool to handle the excess wheat. Although the terms were not disclosed at the time, the present arrangement was agreed to by a meeting in May, 1940, at which were represented nominees of the Australian Wheat Growers' Federation from each of the four large wheat growing States. Advice to Growers The Premier (Mr.

Dunstan) said on Sulurday that tile Federal guarantee of 4 a bushel for wheat, which was a reasonable price, should not be limited to 3000 bushels, but should be tnucle available to all growers, Irrespective of tile quantity produced. The policy of the present Slate Government was definitely opposed to the limitation of production. He had consistently fought against the restriction of acreage at all wheat conferences. He was opposed to curtnll-ing the output of any primary product. Wheat growers would be well ad vised, said Mr.

Dunstan, to press ineir claims, ana nob to oe siae-tracked into accepting a guarantee covering onlv a portion of the crop produced by the average grower. Apple and Pear Scheme Speaking recently at a deputation to the Footscray council from the Fruit Growers' Defence League of Australia, Mr. V. Clark urged that the mule and uear acaiilsltion scheme be revised to deal with the export surplus only. This surplus should be distributed to Government institutions, processed, portion to be retained to prevent excessive charges by the growers.

He declared that growers' representatives on any Government body dealing with the surplus should be elected by a democratic vote of the growers. LOCH'S WAR EFFORT Loch has given further evidence of the spirit In which it distinguished itself In connection with the recent Liberty Loan, when it won the pennant for the highest per capita subscription. A Princess competition and bazaar organised by the Loch Patriotic Funds committee has raised 387. The Ave princesses were all under the age of fourteen, and the competition ran for six weeks only, culminating in a bazaar on Wednesday, June 3, the stalls for which were organised by the Loch branch of the Red Cross. Local enthusiasm made it a very close contest, resulting In the coronation of Miss Shirley Knox as Princess Royal.

Her final total was 89. Princess Valda Wallace raised 84, Princess Meryl Robinson 72, Princess Lynette Sharpe 46, and Princess Wllma Loh 43. Much credit goes to the organising secretary, Mr. C. H.

The Churches VICTORY, MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL The lesson of Munich was that the democratic forces must fight whatever the cost, against a treacherous and rapacious tyrant to preserve the liberty they hold dear. Rev. E.

J. Durance, at St. Paul's Cathedral yesterday, said we had recovered from the humiliation of our stand on the first Czechoslovakian crLsis, when we sued for peace because we believed we were not strong enough to fight a foe who outnumbered us, and who was better prepared for war. But who wanted peace when freedom was the price The cost could not be counted when principles were at stake. We were fighting valiantly now for those principles, and God forbid that there should be any discouraging of the human sacrifice and suffering to preserve them.

However, the winning of the war was not enough. The people should look to their spiritual principles. Spiritually, the fiery trial the people were undergoing to-day would leave them unblessed unless, they were ready to give humble acknowledgment to God and to admit that all their expectations came from Him. Victory that gave no spiritual blessing would not be complete. Roman Catholic Catholic Action organisations took part in an hour of adoration at St.

Patrick's Cathedral yesterday as a corporate thanks offering to God and to Intercede for His continued blessing upon Australia. Rev. J. Meagher, S.J., conducted the exercises. A new presbytery at the corner of White Horse-road and Clota-avenue, Box Hill, was opened yesterday afternoon by Archbishop Mannix, who was supported by regular and diocesan clergy.

The building cost 3000. and the appeal In aid realised 1023. Archbishop Mannix In his adddress regretted that vicious attacks were being made upon Italians In Australia. Addressing 600 men in Manresa Hall. Hawthorn, yesterday.

Very Rev. J. Meagher, provincial of the Jesuit-Fathers in Australia, said spiritual activity was an effective answer to organised atheism and paganism, which were striving to destroy Christ and His church. Communism was a materialistic system which was actively opposed to religion. Limits of Free Speech Free speech, like IIS mother, liberty; was something of a misnomer.

Free dom was curtailed by law because no man could speak or act in such a way as to Infringe the freedom of otners. The Speaker of the House of Re- presentatives (Mr. Nairn) made this statement in me course ot an address at Weslev Church vesterdav after noon. He said that the fall of France was due to an abuse of free SDeech loose talking and to the failure of the French people to discipline themselves, which was essential if licence were not to creep in and destroy liberty. Collins-street Baptist Rev.

T. E. Ruth, of Sydney, opened a series of talks on Christ In Australia at the Collins-street Baptist Church last night. He said that Christ had come to Australia, not In any supernatural way, but In the very structure of our personal and political life. Christ was our contemporary.

Christ was teaching us to make practical politics of the Lord's Prayer, thereby leading men to make this country the holv land of Australia. The nations were now In a cul-de-sac and the way out was the way of the Sermon on the Mount. A large congregation, which knew Mr. Ruth as pastor of the church many years ago, welcomed him last night. Scots Church Members of the Women's Naval Service were amongst the large congregation at Scots Church yester- aay morning.

Tne preacher was the minister of the church, Rev. J. Golder Burns. Planning New Order The need for careful planning of the new social order was stressed at the Liberal Jewish Synagogue. St.

Kilda, yesterday afternoon by Rev. A. Penry Evans, of Coll ns-street In. dependent Church and president of me iuiigregauonai union oi Australia and New Zealand. Mr.

Evans said that racially we had arrived at a point where man was taking Into his own hands the control of the process of evolution. This might lead man to regard himself as his own maker and become his own god. The social structure was not to grow spontaneously, but was to be planned. It was therefore necessary that we should hold the right ideas to express in the planning ui ine new oroer. GEELONG MURDER Solution of Mystery Expected GEELONG, Sunday.
