November Rainfall
Hiohest Since 1877

Following the driest October

The Weather Bureau report

precipitation totaled $40 inch

But on November /. the skies

Menzies Wins
In Australia

SYDNEY, Australia, Nov. 80
(AP)-Prime Minister Sir
Robert Menzies won an over
whelming vote today for his
policy Of firm ties with the
United States as the Nation
swept his coalition group back
to power with an increased ma
jority.
With counting in the gen.
eral election nearly complete,
the Liberal Country party
coalition seemed assured Of SO
seats In the 122 member house
Of Representatives. The Labor
party had won 80 and there
were 8 seats still to be de-
cided.
In the last Parliament, cho-
sen in 1861, the government
had q majority Of only two
seats.
Gamble Won
Sir Robert, who has been
Prime Minister IA years, had
thus convtncingly won the
gamble Of his snap election,
fought mainly on foreign policy
issues.
His two big campaign planks
were his pledge Of unqualified
support for Malaysia. and his
governments agreement with
the United States to build a
huge American naval commun-
ications station on the West
Australian coast.
Many voters, It appeared,
had been frightened by Labor's
promise to renegotiate the ma
val base deal to give Australia
Joint control. There seems to
have been a feeling that such a
step might brighten the United
States out of Australia.
The base will help direct Po-
laris submarines. Certainly, it
has been the idea Of most vot-
ers that once it is established
the United States will see to 1t
that the baSe-and Australia
are defended.
AS the election campaign
proceeded, Labor Leader Ar
thur Calwell switched the at
tack to bread and butter ques-
tons including welfare hand
outs. But the assassination Of
President Kennedy turned the
Nations thoughts again to
foreign affairs, and their big
neighbor across the Pacific.
Voting in Australia Is COM
pulSory for all over 81 years of
age, and is on a preference sys-
TEN. This means 1t is often i'm
possible to give the final result

ton Of preferences usually fol-
