GOODE INQUIRY
CHEQUES EXPLAINED.
(Australian Press Association.)
SYDNEY, June 23,
At the Goode inquiry to-day 3 Joseph P. Davis, cartage contractor, for the New South Wales Railways, said that he had had some dealings with a motor car which, after its purchase in 1928, was registered in Mr Goode’s name. He also gave Mr Goode cheques for £l@o and £l3O for the purchase of land at the seaside in 1928. Mr Goode said that he had undertaken to buy this land, and he asked witness (Davis) to take it over. Mr Goode also told witness that he wanted £2OO by the end of November 1929. Witness drew a cheque for £l5O, cashed it, and handed the notes to Mr Goode, who gave no receipt, nor did witness ask for one, as he treated it as a private loan. The hearing was adjourned. Judge Thomson, the Royal Commissioner, announced that the Government ha extended the terms and the scope of this inquiry, thereby enabling the Commission to ask Mr Goode whether he had received any consideration or money from any person or firms.
