Brisbane Procession
Brisbane, Jan. 26 – More than 60,000 people lined the city streets this morning to watch a mile-long Australia Day procession. Six hundred people and 40 floats took part in the 35-minute parade.
The route was patrolled by 150 policemen, but no incidents were reported. The only excitement was provided by Constable Robert Tantell, a member of the mounted police troop. His horse slipped and fell near the corner of Queens and Albert streets soon after the start of the procession but Tatnell escaped injury.
The most popular floats were the Native Affairs aboriginal group in war paint and carrying spears; the Save the Trees campaign display of half a dozen live koalas in a gum-tree setting; and the Health and Home Affairs Department’s square-rigged sailing ship.
The Australia Day committee honorary secretary (Mr. W. Murphy) said he was disappointed at the absence of New Australians from

Make Day For Flags
A call for more flags and bunting in Queensland cities and town to mark Australia Day, January 26, was made yesterday.
“Last year, most of the flags seen on Australia Day were those carried by children,” the Australia Day Celebration Committee secretary (Mr. W. Murphy) said.
“There should be plenty of flags available this year, as hundreds were sold in Queensland in preparation for the Royal tour,” he said.
Real significance
“To most Australians Australia Day is just another holiday. We are trying to change this attitude and make them realise its real significance as our national day.”
Mr. Murphy said 13 bands would take part in Monday’s procession through the city. Special trains will run to bring spectators into the city.
The procession is to be followed by a sports carnival at the Exhibition Grounds, including trotting, cycling, dancing, hunts, and a massed bands parade.
