Ollivier, Christchurch, said he noticed two very interesting things during a brief stay in Australia. . , The first was the decision of the New South Wale® Government tliat- the Government insurance offj.oe was to abandon all business outside Government risks, whether fire, accident, or workers’ compensation. The second noteworthy matter was the formation and registration as a company of the Bribery and Secret Commissions League, which was said to have been brought into being to .vage a relentless war on grafters, >asing its hope of effectiveness on propaganda in the first place and later, ernaps, on direct action, by investigation and prosecutions.
