This PhD thesis by Dr Sarah Gregson is a major contribution to the historical debate over racism and class in Australia. She sees the RSL as an elite-dominated, cross-class organisation with links to every section of society, and argues that the RSL was a significant agitator for migrant exclusion and white unity in the interwar period. In this context, labour movement responses to migrant labour incorporated a range of different strategies, from demands for racist exclusion to moves towards international solidarity.

    Extractions: Monash: Library home: Exhibitions: History: Early Australian History 6 April - 30 June 2000 Virtual Exhibition You may also read the text of the catalogue online. To understand our past we must be aware of it. The Australiana section of the Monash Rare Book Collection allows researchers to approach more closely to the experience of our ancestors. We find there the accounts of the early discoverers, settlers and explorers. The conditions under which they lived and their response to Australia's native inhabitants can be understood much better if we read what they wrote. The gold rushes, the traveller's accounts, the preoccupations of our forebears, such as the affair of the Tichborne Claimant, all take on an added dimension when we are able to re-live them in detail through the study of the contemporary texts. We have on display most of the landmark Australiana volumes: Dampier's account, Captain Cook's three voyages, the First Fleet Journals, the key exploration accounts, as well as such natural history classics as Gould's

51. Australian History Of Veneer And Plywood Manufacturing
    australian history of Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing.  
    http://sres.anu.edu.au/associated/fpt/plywood/history.html
    
    Extractions: Boas (1947) states that the manufacture of veneer and plywood in Australia first occurred in 1907. Messrs, Beale and Co. of Sydney used machines for slicing and sawing veneers for use in piano manufacture. The first rotary lathe was placed into production approximately eight years later. The lathe was used to peel hoop pine to manufacture 3-ply plywood, and was installed in Brisbane by McG Williams. In 1916 Messers, Brims and Co. established a plywood mill at Yeerongpilly in Brisbane. This mill grew rapidly into a modern plant for its time, but was destroyed by fire in 1943. In 1944, the total of veneer and plywood mills in Australia reached 25, with a total annual production of 140 000 000 square feet of plywood. At this time the industry was based in Queensland with other mills scattered throughout Australia. The species utilised in each state in 1944 are as follows; Queensland

    Extractions: The Little Bitch from Down Under* *female puppy, canine or dog from Australia Becoming a Nation Australia was the last great habitable land mass to be surveyed and colonised by Europeans. Aeons before the explorers made their landfall, the Aborigines took possession of the vast empty continent. They are believed to have travelled from Asia along transitory land bridges created by the rising and ebbing seas of the Ice Age. For thousands of years they occupied the continent undisturbed and undiscovered. In 1606, a Dutchman, Willem Jansz sailed down the west coast of Cape York Peninsular. In 1616 another Dutchman, Dirk Hartog made landfall about 700km north of Perth, and another Dutchman, Abel Tasman, skirted Tasmania in 1642. The first Englishman known to have visited these shores was William Dampier. He was a navigator and pirate who reached the north-west coast in 1688. But it was Captain James Cook who finally put the Great South Land on the map when he discovered and charted the east coast in 1770. He paved the way for eventual British settlement. During much of the eighteenth century, Britain sent criminals from their overflowing gaols to the American colonies. Following the American War of Independence this outlet was closed. In 1788, the First Fleet under the command of Captain Arthur Phillip set off for Botany Bay to establish a penal settlement. When he arrived there, he thought the bay inadequate for his purposes so sailed further north to Port Jackson. He named his settlement, Sydney.

    http://www.oliveaustralia.aust.com/Australian__History/australian_history.html
    
    Extractions: A Brief History of Olives in Australia (Adapted from the April 1997 issue of Australian Olive Grower) The history of olive farming in Australia dates back to the early 1800's . Olives were probably first planted in groves around in Parramatta near Sydney. Olives and olive oil have been traded among the civilizations throughout the world for centuries, so it seems probable that many of the ships arriving on our shores would have carried some olive trees for planting. All the states and territories, excluding Tasmania were planted with some varieties of olive trees during the 1800s. During this period, South Australia and Victoria were the states where most of the planting was going on and they were considered the leaders at that time.South Australia began to lead the charge of the olive industry back in the 1830s. Between 1830 and 1850 trees had come in from France, Rio de Janeiro and Sicily. One company took delivery of five varieties from Marseilles. These trees went on to produce oil which won honourable mention at the London Exhibition of 1851. Also, the Stonyfell Olive Oil Company of South Australia won
