In joyous buoyant minstrclsy, Along the shores of Galilee.

Surely the mountains and the hills, 'I'he rushing rivers, and the rills,

Re-echoed sounds of jubilee, That reached the shores of Galilee.

Cutting Government Costs

The Premier of .Victoria (Sir

Stanley Argyle) has given an un- dertaking that he will reduce the current year‘s deficit from 1,950,000 pounds to 900,000 pounds, and he is at present engaged on that colossal task. Already savings of 180,000 pounds have been effected repres- enting the first instalment. The balance will be-lived partly by re- duced expenditure and partly by new means of raising revenue not yet specified. In the Education dc- partment the Minister (Mr. J. W. Pennington) is striving to cut off a quarter of a million pounds from the existing budgetary figure of three millions. V

Slr William McPherson

Véctoria. mourns the loss of one

of er chief citizens in Sir William McPherson. _He was not only Treasurer of this State for six suc- cessive years but succeeded in in- variably showing a surplus of re- venue, over exenditure. His Scots caution, however, was not extended to his private philanthropy, which was widespread and liberal in the extreme. He built up n flourishing business of his own, but he also built up a tradition of care and foresight in the public finances of the State, to which may be at- tributed in a. large measure the fact that Victoria. today is one of 'those states which has weathered the economic blizzard in better

style than most.

Rall Ind Road

Referring to the fact that the

Victorian Railways lost 1,480,000 pounds in 1930-31, the Railways Commissioner, Mr. Harold Clapp,

expressed by the announcement that the term of office of the wt. ing-Governor, Sir William Irvine' had been extended for a. further period of six months. Sir William, who has filled the high office of Premier and Chief Justice of hu State, is ou: _most distinguish” citizen, and is very greatly respen. ted throughout the State. Hs 1 known more for his austere manner than for the genial smile of thi

n_1s._1ority of governors, but no maxi could have better upheld the dig.. nity of hifoffice than he, an( when he speaks men listen to wl-nu he has to say. ~ The question 'will arise sooner oi later as to a choice of his successori and it is not improbable that onci again we shall have a representat- ive of the King from the Old Conn. try. There are; however, difficult- ies of accommodation and expensi which will require consideration.

Observatory May Go

- 'rhs Melbourne observatory 1. threatened after an existance ol sixty years. The need for econ- omy has brought this establishef institution into the limelight, om might. also say under the barrow. It costs about 3,000 pounds a year to maintain, of which nine-tenthi go in salaries. Members of the As- ,tronomical Society have prepared a statement, which with great in- genuity shows that the study of thi stars costs one seventeen-thoun andth of one pcrcan of the total idovemment expenditure. Whos faced with a fact like that the tax- payer wonders if something mor( suatantlal could not be saved from other sources.

Music and Drama

In recent weeks Melbourne hal

had many opportunities of seeing some of the best plays by com- panies of undoubted calibre, and also of hearing magnificent music.

said that during the year 1831-32 that sum had been reduced to un- der one million. But he made it clear that in his view the road ,competition by motor lorries was "sheer subsidised piracy. If we do not fight the motor competition, the railways will' be broken he de-

clared. and urged that there should be drastic legislation to rcgul te motor traffic on the roads in com- petition with the railways. Most thinking people are in agreement with Mr. Clapp that the railways must be maintained if only for long haul traffic of wheat and wool and other heavy freights. Unfor- tunately these are the least prof- itable and, al Mk. Clapp observes, "the motors get the cream while leaving the skimmed milk. to us."

The Acting-Governor' General dissatisfaction has been
