(Received this d.iy at 10.30 a.in.) SYDNEY, January 7.
Breaking the silence he has preserved over the action of the Hoard of Control in censuring him for his alleged breach of agreement on the,test tour Don Bradman now gives his side of the case. He states he still considers he dlid n<|c break the agreement, declaring no sum of money, no matter how large could compensate him, if his honour was affected.
Bradman explains his writings were in tlie form of a boob which liis agents sold to a London paper and the paper published them in the form of a serial. He stipulated that nothing whatever relating to the tour in progress should he published in any shape or form prior to his return to Australia. This stipulation was strictly adhered to.
Brad',man says he will accept the Board’s decision to deduct £SO sterling from his allowance in what lie hopes will be regarded as the proper spirit. • {
