IN THE BALANCE
FATE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT INDEPENDENT MAY VOTE WITH LABOUR. CRITICISM OF COMPULSORY LOANS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) SYDNEY. September 28. The Independent (Mr A. Wilson) whose vote will save or wreck the Federal Government, gave an interview to the press in which he indicates that he may range himself with Labour against the compulsory loans when the Budget is under discussion during the coming week. He openly stated that the Budget will place burdens on people heavier than they will be able to bear and probably result in mass inability to meet fixed commitments entered into for homes, land and businesses. Compulsory loans, ho claimed, are doubtful finance. He saw no prospect of paying money after the war which could not be found today.
