MAY BE ABANDONED
AUSTRALIAN EXHIBITION " POLITICIANS DUBIOUS ~ (U.litcd I'.A—By Telegraph — Copyright) Reed. 9.45 a.m. CANBERRA, To-day. Strong opposition was evinced by members of the House of Representatives to the Bill authorising the Com-m-mwealth to appropriate £500,000 as its share of the expenditure of the Australian British Empire Exhibition of 1932. Federal and State members alike were not enthusiastic, for fear of a huge loss. It was declared that there were far better ways of advertising Australia. The Prime Minister, Mr. Stanlev Bruce, indicated that it would be highly likely that the Bill would be dropped, and the exhibition abandoned.
