who, after all, are paying for us, but I must say I've never

Chamber in this place, in which I felt instinctively as I
looked around, " After all, they are all human beings"

The Prime Minister today announced a further development in Australian participation in the Scheme of Commonwealth Co-operation in Education formulated last year at the Oxford Conference.

This talk,as I suppose you would call it, that I am to give to you this evening is called the "Wind of Change". That phrase, of course, has been rendered immortal by Mr. Harold Macmillan after his visit to South Africa.

HON. R. G. MENZIES, IN THE HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES ON 8TH SEPTEM3ER, 1960
Sir, I do not propose to take very long over this

Hasluck) has made, I think, a very comprehensive statement,

for me to say that I have heard the Ministerts statement that
I have nothing to add to it, that I agree with it, and sit
down.
Mr. Pollard Why not do that?
