On BR's visit to Australia lecture in 1950.

"Lord Russell's visit to Brisbane has been a great success in every way. The public lecture was crowded to capacity and last night the Governor came to the address to the Institute."

"... Lord Russell was enabled to have a less strenuous time after Sydney. On Wednesday he motored up to Toowoomba, stayed the night and motored back on Thursday." BR is looking forward to seeing the Barrier Reef and North Queensland in his spare time. "Lord Russell is anxious to see how the white man has faced up to the problems of development in tropical areas as well as to see something of what remains of the undeveloped fertile areas of Australia." BR will be in Canberra on Monday July 17th.
