He was 30 years old, married and had six children, four male and two female. James CANTWELL, a Roman Catholic, could read but not write. A native of County Kilkenny, Ireland, he was a coal miner. He was convicted of “unlawful oaths” at Kilkenny on 14 March 1833 and sentenced to life. He had no previous convictions. James CANTWELL was six feet tall, with a brown complexion and was a little pockpitted. He had light sandy hair and dark grey eyes. His peculiar marks and scars are described as “I†S” back of right hand, same back of left hand. In the remarks column of the list of prisoners for the “James Laing”, it states that James CANTWELL’s brother Michael CANTWELL had been transported “last ship”.4 James CANTWELL was a convict transported to Australia on the transport “James Laing” in 1834. He was assigned to the district of Port Stephens.8 The “James Laing” departed Dublin, Ireland on 16 Feb 1834 and arrived in Sydney, NSW, Australia on 29 Jun 1834, after a passage of 133 days. The ship embarked 201 male convicts and no women, and disembarked 197 male convicts.9 The passage of Michael and Mary BRENNAN to Australia was paid by Mary CANTWELL (nee BRENNAN), whose husband James CANTWELL had been transported to Australia for “illegally swearing oaths” in 1831. After James CANTWELL was transported, Michael and Mary BRENNAN had cared for Mary CANTWELL and her children. When James CANTWELL was freed aftering doing his time, Mary CANTWELL and the children followed him to Australia. Michael and Mary BRENNAN then followed the CANTWELLs, sailing in 1862 aboard the Abbyssinian. Michael BRENNAN died of pneumonia during the voyage, leaving his widow with nine children and another born shortly after the family arrived in Sydney. The CANTWELLs were unable to support the BRENNAN family and the children were turned into service, leading to a break in relations between the two families.10 James CANTWILL (sic), a farmer, died at Narrowgut near Morpeth, New South Wales, Australia on 27 March 1857. He was 60 years of age. The cause of death was inflammation of the lungs after an illness lasting 21 days. Death was certified by William BROWN, who last saw the deceased on 20 March 1857. The informant was Thomas CANTWELL, farmer, of Narrowgut - the son of the deceased.

James CANTWILL’s parents were Thomas CANTWILL and Mary CANTWILL, formerly FARRELL. He was born in Kilkenny, Ireland. The death certificate gives no details of his wife or marriage, but lists his children as Thomas, 34 years; Patrick, 30 years; and Bridget, 28 years. James CANTWILL was buried on 20 June 1857 at the Roman Catholic Burial Ground, East Maitland, NSW, Australia. The undertaker was William Thomas MITCHELL, while the witnesses were Thomas OGLE and Moses MURPHY.3 Leon Cantwell gives James CANTWELL’s year of birth as 1797 and his date of death as 27 March 1857.5 From the Maitland Mercury, Saturday, 24 March 1849 Charge of Stealing Wedges -On Thursday a man named John Doyle was brought before the bench, charged with stealing wedges. It appeared from the evidence of James Cantwell that he and Doyle had been working together as splitters, and that one evening, about three weeks since, they as usual hid their wedges and tools before going home; on the following morning both sets of tools were gone, and Doyle appeared mnch vexed at having lost his; of the seven wedges produced Cantwell identified two positively as having been among his own set hid that evening, and another he also believed to be one; two of these three had been lent witness by Edward Lockhart. Constable Lennard deposed that in consequence of information he searched Doyle's house, and found therein the seven wedges produced. Doyle said that he got some of the wedges from Mr. Mark Turner, and others from Mr. Lawn. Yesterday the case came on again, when Lockhart deposed that he did lend Cantwell two wedges, but could not identify them again. In defence Mark Turner deposed that he supplied Doyle with four or five wedges a short time since, but could not say if they were any of those produced. William Lawn deposed that Doyle got a wedge from his son, but witness did not see it delivered, nor could he tell if it was one of those produced. The bench questioned Cantwell closely as to how he identified the wedges, and finally discharged Doyle, on the ground that the wedges were not satisfactorily identified.11 From the Maitland Mercury, Saturday, 4 August 1849 DRUNKENNESS-On Thursday Francis Stevenson was brought before the bench, and was convicted of having been drunk ; he was fined 20s. or 24 hours in the cells. Yesterday James Cantwell, holding a ticket-of-leave, was convicted of drunkenness and disorderly-conduct; he was sentenced to fourteen days in the cells, with a caution as to his future conduct.12 Spouse: Mary BRENNAN2,13,10,14 Birth: abt 1803, Cloneen, County Kilkenny, Ireland2,13,10 Birth Memo: Date estimated from Immigrant Index Death: 26 Oct 1885, Singleton, NSW, Australia2,14,5 Father: Patrick B BRENNAN Mother: Mary HUGHES Mary CANTWELL (aged 48 years) emigrated to Australia in 1851 aboard the ship “Garland”. With her were her children Thomas (26), Patrick (22), Mary (20), and Bridget (18). Hard copy of the passenger list is awaited for verification. 13 The “Garland” was one of nine vessels with that name in 1851, but only one did the passage to Australia. She was an 881-ton wooden ship, built in Quebec in 1850 and owned by Kirk & Co. Liverpool. The ship’s master for the passage to Australia in 1851 was Captain W. Halcrow. The “Garland” departed Liverpool on 30 Nov 1850 and arrived Sydney 15 Mar 1851.15 Mike Cahill gives Mary BRENNAN’s year of birth as about 1807.10 The passage of Michael and Mary BRENNAN to Australia was paid by Mary CANTWELL (nee BRENNAN), whose husband James CANTWELL had been transported to Australia for “illegally swearing oaths” in 1831. After James CANTWELL was transported, Michael and Mary BRENNAN had cared for Mary CANTWELL and her children. When James CANTWELL was freed aftering doing his time, Mary CANTWELL and the children followed him to Australia. Michael and Mary BRENNAN then followed the CANTWELLs, sailing in 1862 aboard the Abbyssinian.

Michael BRENNAN died of pneumonia during the voyage, leaving his widow with nine children and another born shortly after the family arrived in Sydney. The CANTWELLs were unable to support the BRENNAN family and the children were turned into service, leading to a break in relations between the two families.10 Mary Cantwell died on 26 October 1885 at Ravensworth, New South Wales, Australia. She was 87 years of age. The cause of death was senile decay after an illness lasting 12 months. She was last seen by Dr Richard Read about two months previous to her death. Death was certified by John CANTWELL, grandson, of Ravensworth, near Singleton. Mary Cantwell’s parents were Patrick BRENNAN and Mary HUGHES. Patrick BRENNAN’s occupation was unknown.

The undertaker was Arthur C ROBINSON. The minister was Jason FLYNN, Roman Catholic, while the witnesses were Michael KENNA and Henry McCROHON. (NOTE: Michael KENNA is believed to be the father of the KENNA brothers who married two of Mary Cantwell’s granddaughters, while Henry McCROHON may be linked to the Mary’s daughter-in-law Susannah McCROHON.) The death was registered by F J ROBINSON on 30 October 1885 at Singleton.14 From her death certificate, Mary BRENNAN may have been born in Ireland in about 1798, while she may have married James CANTWELL in Ireland in about 1820.14 Leon Cantwell gives Mary BRENNAN’s year of birth as 1798.5 Marr: abt 1820, Ireland14 Children: Lawrence (1825-<1885) Patrick (1829-1875) Thomas (1830-1910) Mary (1831-<1885) Michael (1832-<1885) Bridget (1833-1907) 1.1.1 Lawrence CANTWELL4,16,5 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Birth: 182516,5 Death: bef 26 Oct 188514 Family details for James CANTWELL on the list of convicts aboard the James Laing do not give the children’s names, so the names are speculative only until primary sources are identified.

The passenger list gives Thomas CANTWELL’s age as 26 years - at odds with the date calculated from his death certificate.13 The “Garland” was one of nine vessels with that name in 1851, but only one did the passage to Australia. She was an 881-ton wooden ship, built in Quebec in 1850 and owned by Kirk & Co. Liverpool. The ship’s master for the passage to Australia in 1851 was Captain W. Halcrow.

John Kenneth CANTWELL was an author and playwright. He published at least two books, one of which was “Never A Closing Door”, and also wrote short stories under the pseudonym of Rex Barr.2,218 From the dustcover of “Never a Closing Door”: “John CANTWELL, son of an Australian miner of Irish stock, was born at East Greta, New South Wales, in 1924. After Lithgow High School, his studies at the University of Sydney were interrupted by the outbreak of war. He saw active service in the RAAF in North Queensland and Dutch New Guinea, occasionally acting as a scriptwriter and announcer with Allied Forces Radio. “His literary career began in earnest when at 18 he sold his first short story. In the belief that writers should travel, Mr Cantwell has held a great variety of jobs all over the world, including that of dishwasher in a a Westminster cafe, public-bar pianist, casual reporter on a London (Ontario) newspaper, and proof reader in three continents. “At present he has returned to Australia where he is busy on another novel and a play, working in a cottage not far from Sydney.”218 Death notice: CANTWELL, John Kenneth, february 23, 1966, at his residence, 33/2 Vanderbilt Flats, Barncleuth Square, Potts Point, beloved brother of James, dear brother-in-law of Doris, and fond uncle of their children, aged 42 years.

1.1.3.1.12 John Lawrence CANTWELL2,240,241 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Birth: Mar 1894, East Greta, NSW, Australia240,5 Death: 15 Apr 1918, Outtersteene, France240,241,5 John Lawrence CANTWELL was born in the Parish of East Greta, near the town of West Maitland, New South Wales, Australia. When he enlisted in the Australian Army on 30 June 1915 his age was given as 21 years and three months, implying that he was born in March 1894. When he enlisted, John CANTWELL gave his trade as butcher and stated that he had not been an apprentice. John CANTWELL was unmarried when he enlisted. His next of kin was his father, Mr J Cantwell, Post Office, Copeland, NSW via Gloucester. When John CANTWELL was transferred to No.1 Machine Gun Company, 2nd Battalion, his next of kin details were expanded to: Father, James Patrick CANTWELL, Post Office, Copeland, NSW, Australia. John CANTWELL’s enlistment form describes him as five feet, six inches tall, weighing 124 pounds (8 stone 12 pounds). His chest measurement was 32/34 inches. He had a fair complexion, grey eyes and brown hair. He was a Roman Catholic. John CANTWELL’s oath was taken at Liverpool, NSW, Australia on 30 July 1915. Private John Lawrence CANTWELL, service number 2712, was initially appointed to 8th Reinforcements, 2nd


Page 43

Battalion. He was then transferred to 2nd Battalion, AIF and joined his unit at Gallipoli on 4 November 1915. On 28 December 1915, Private CANTWELL disembarked at Alexandria, Egypt, ex “Huntsgreen”. He was then taken on the strength of 1st Machine Gun Company, 1st Infantry Brigade on 12 March 1916. Private CANTWELL embarked for overseas at Alexandria on 22 March 1916 and disembarked at Marseille, France, ex “Grampian”, on 28 March 1916. On 16 January 1917, Private CANTWELL was admitted to 20th General Hospital, Camiers with scabies. He was discharged to duty on 20 January 1917, marching in to MGB/Depot on 21 January 1917.

This was the result of the Australian machine gun companies being amalgamated into machine gun battalions. The first commander of 1st Machine Gun Battalion was Lieutenant Colonel Iven McKay (later to become Lieutenant General Sir Iven Mackay). Sergeant CANTWELL was killed in action on 15 April 1918. In his will, dated 1 June 1917, Sergeant CANTWELL bequeathed his personal estate to Mr James CANTWELL, “Rawdon Vale”, Copeland, NSW, Australia. Witnesses to Sergeant CANTWELL’s will were B.L.

He was a native of Nambucca River, New South Wales and is remembered on panel 31 of the Ypres (Menin Gate) Memorial, Ieper, West-Vlaanderen, Belgium. He had enlisted on 17 September 1914.

(Henry CANTWELL was living at 23 Swan Street, Hamilton, Newcastle, NSW at the time.) The letter reads: “Sir, “Having just received intimation of the death in action of my brother (2712 Sgt J L CANTWELL, 1st MG Coy, late 2nd Battalion, AIF)(14 April 1918) and not having the original of the cable to hand.

Despite the latter part of this reply, Sergeant CANTWELL’s service record also includes an inventory of personal effects, dated 22 May 1918, from AIF Kit Store, 110 Greyhound Road, Hammersmith, London W6. This reads: “Inventory of Effects of 2712 Cantwell, JL, 1st Machine Gun Battalion, AIF “Forwarded to – Legatee, Mr James Cantwell, Rawdon Vale, Copeland, New South Wales, Australia. “Effects. “Ex 3rd Echelon France (3/373) 22.5.18 “Disc, photos, wallet, note book, German belt, shaving outfit, pocket dominoe set, housewife, whistle, beads, curios, cloth badge. “Per “Barunga” 20.6.18

“In case no. 1206 “D/S 34563” HMAT Barunga (ex enemy vessel “Sumatra”) was 7484-ton steamer, capable of 11 knots. It was manned by Australian officers and crew. The “Barunga” was torpedoed and sunk by a German U-boat in the North Atlantic on 15 July 1918. A copy of a report from the Graves Registration Unit (Exhumation) states that “1/MGC 2712 Cantwell, Sgt JL 15/4/18 (report Bailleul 6.40 C)” was buried at Outtersteene Communal Cemetery Extension, 2.5 miles south-west of Bailleul. The original of the report is recorded as being in the file of 6358 Pte WM Black. A receipt slip received by Base Records on 18 November 1920 shows that J P CANTWELL had received “three copies of photograph of the grave of the late No 2712, Sgt J L Cantwell, 1st MG Btn” on 10 November 1920. Additional records note that a Memorial Scroll was sent to “Father, Mr M (sic) J Cantwell 344525” on 31 August 1921, a Memorial Plaque was sent to “Father Direct, Mr J Cantwell 344525” on 1 November 1922 and a Victory Medal was sent by registered post (no 2289) to “Father” on 11 January 1923. On 18 January 1923, J CANTWELL of Copeland via Gloucester, NSW, wrote to the officer-in-charge of Base Record as follows: “Dear Sir, ‘Please forward one pamphlet, “Graves of the Fallen” to the address as under. “Enclosed find 6d in postage stamps.” The letter has a note reading “Booklet dispatched 23/1/1922”. On 9 June 1923, outstanding “form ‘A’ to NOK per BRM 55/404 Outtersteene Cem, A form to Ldn inscription 35/404-3/7/23” was sent. Presumably, this was sent to Sergeant CANTWELL’s father and had details of the inscription on his headstone. A copy of a letter dated 22 September 1925 was sent to Mr J CANTWELL, Post Office, Copeland via Gloucester, NSW. There are no details of who sent the letter, which reads: “RU M.54/921” “Sir, “Outtersteene Communal Cemetery Extension “ your son, the late No 2712, Sergeant J L CANTWELL, 1st Machine Gun Battalion, are interred.” A record headed “War Gratuity Schedule: Transferred to Australia Imperial Force” contains details of Sergeant CANTWELL’s date of casualty and his various entitlements. It reads, in part: “9 May 18 MO2 Advised killed in action 15/4/18 May 17 1918 Copy made for war pensions 10.8.18 Will to DPM 2MD 31/1406 Effects ex “Barunga” lost at sea M33/963 No personal effects in ??

There was a cross up - name and number. J.Thomas wrote his people about how he was killed. Thomas told me he was hit in the throat by a bit of shell and bled to death. It look like it for I found his tin hat full of blood and I put it in the ditch, and covered up the blood. Informant:- A G Smith 566, W42 Harefield242 KILLED 15-4-18 At Strazeele on Sunday 14th April, Cantwell was Sergeant. About noon, shell burst on the road. We were at the time in Strazeele for a meal, Cantwell had just come out of a door facing the road. Splinter him in the throat - died within a few moments, never spoke. I was alongside him when he died. Was buried in field just opposite, in Strazeele. I

He was struck by a shell fragment, and bled to death a few moments later; but was conscious until he died. I have seen the grave. It is at Strezale, near the road and beside a hedge, and a cross is on the spot. Cantwell was a Sergt with us. He came from Newcastle, NSW. His age was about 24, stout built; and fair.

In order than we can avoid any confusion I may state that up to the time of his death the deceased soldier had been promoted to the rank of Sgt. He was buried on the field, but not in a military cemetery, when the grave would be registered, but I may say that i have officially notified the Graves Registration Department of the exact position of his grave. A neat cross has been erected by the surivors of his gun crews. Apart from the fact that Sgt Cantwell was of medium height, and fair, I’m lost as regards any further details as to his personal appearance. Officially we reported his death as:- 2712 Sgt Cantwell J L, 1st Aust MG Coy.

Henry Joseph CANTWELL

1.1.3.1.13 Henry Joseph CANTWELL2,157,243,244 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Birth: May 1896, East Greta, NSW, Australia2,245,243,5 Death: 13 Nov 1962, Sydney, NSW, Australia245,244,5 Occ: Journalist, Sydney Morning Herald And The Sun198 Reli: Roman Catholic Alias: Harry Cantwell198 Henry Joseph CANTWELL was born in the Parish of East Greta, near the town of West Maitland, New South Wales, Australia. When he enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force on 4 November 1914, his age was given as 18 years and five months, implying he was born in May 1896. His birth registration confirms that he was born in 1896. On his enlistment attestation paper, Henry CANTWELL (right) gave his trade as butcher and stated that he had not been an apprentice. Henry CANTWELL was unmarried when he enlisted. His next of kin was his father, James Cantwell, of Cessnock Street, Kurri Kurri, NSW, Australia. Henry CANTWELL’s previous military service consisted of four months in the militia, serving with “14th Infantry” (presumed to be 14th (Hunter River) Infantry). He was described as five feet, nine inches tall and weighed 140 pounds (10 stone). His chest measurement was 31 and a half to 34 and a half inches. He had a medium complexion,


Page 47

blue eyes and brown hair. He was a Roman Catholic. Henry CANTWELL’s oath was taken at Liverpool, NSW, Australia on 4 November 1914. Private Henry Joseph CANTWELL, service number 2337 (also 1337), was appointed to 3rd Battalion, Australian Imperial Force. There are no records of his service or training until February 1915. On 11 February 1915, Private CANTWELL embarked at Sydney on HMAT Seang Bee, indicating that he was with 2nd Reinforcements, 3rd Battalion AIF. The “Seang Bee” (formerly “Shropshire”, pictured right in 1909) was built in 1891 for the Bibby Line by Harland & Wolff at Belfast with a tonnage of 5721grt, a length of 445ft 6in, a beam of 49ft and a service speed of 14.5 knots. Sister of the “Cheshire”, she was launched on 27 July 1891, delivered on 3 October and was the first of the Bibby Line ships be built with passenger berths. She was replaced by the “Leicestershire” in 1909 and sold to Lim Chin Tsong of Rangoon, who renamed her “Seang Bee”.246 Operated by the China & Southern Trading Co. with British officers and flag she had locals as her deck crew. In 1915 she was chartered for use as a troopship and operated between Indian and Burmese waters to the Persian Gulf and later in the Dardanelles campaign. There were reports of her being painted “chocolate brown”. She returned to her owners in 1919 and was broken up in 1931. 246 There is a further gap in the records of Private CANTWELL until the Hospital Ship Gascon reported in his Casualty Form – Active Service that he was disembarked Alex (Alexandria?) with a gunshot wound to the left shoulder, suffered at Gallipoli on 30 April 1915. However, his statement of service noted that Private CANTWELL was wounded in the left shoulder on 12 May 1915. Again, there is a gap until 2 September 1915 when it was reported that Private CANTWELL was admitted to No. 3 Field Ambulance Dressing Station at Anzac. On 4 September 1915, he was transferred to 1st Casualty Clearing Station with influenza and then admitted by the Hospital Ship Neuralia. On 10 October 1915, Private CANTWELL was admitted by St John’s Military Hospital, Sliema, Malta (ex Neuralia), suffering from dysentery. He was transferred from St John’s Military Hospital to All Saints Convalescent Camp on 14 October 1915. On 4 January 1916, Private CANTWELL was discharged fit from All Saints Convalescent Camp for embarkation per Bornu. He disembarked at Alexandria on 12 January 1916 and rejoined 3rd Battalion AIF at Tel-el-Kebir on 15 January. On 26 February 1916, Private CANTWELL was awarded two days Field Punishment No. 2 and forfeited two days pay for being absent over leave from 2130 on 19 February 1916 until 2130 on 20 February 1916. Private CANTWELL embarked HMTS Grampian on 22 March 1916 for overseas, ex Alexandria and disembarked at Marseilles on 28 March. He was appointed Lance Corporal in France on 27 August 1916. He was promoted Corporal in the field on 19 October 1916. Corporal CANTWELL was wounded in action in France on 4 November 1916, suffering a gunshot wound and fracture to the right thigh. He was admitted to No 1 Canadian Hospital, France, on 7 November 1916. On 21 November 1916, Corporal CANTWELL embarked on Hospital Ship Cambria at Calais for England. He was admitted to 3rd Lon. General Hospital on 20 (sic) November 1916. Corporal CANTWELL was discharged from 3rd Lon. General Hospital on 20 February 1917 and embarked on the Hospital Ship Karoola at Avonmouth on 22 February 1917. The “Karoola” sailed for Australia, disembarking Private CANTWELL at Sydney on 12 April 1917. On 16 October 1917, Corporal CANTWELL was discharged medically unfit by 2nd Military District, ex AIF, ex Karoola.247,245 Spouse: Ida Florence WILKS73,2,5 Birth: 1899, West Maitland, NSW, Australia248,5 Death: 8 Aug 1990, Elizabeth Bay, NSW, Australia249,157,5 Occ: Violinist, Sydney Symphony Orchestra198 Alias: Bill Cantwell157,198 Father: Thomas WILKS Mother: Elizabeth Ida WILKS was living at 5 Alabama Flats, 7 Ithaca Road, Elizabeth Bay, Sydney, NSW, Australia on 26 July 1967, when she applied for the Gallipoli Medallion in respect of Henry Joseph CANTWELL.

Charles Keith, AO Mr HOWARD (Bennelong, Prime Minister) (2.01 p.m.) “I move: That the House expresses its deep regret at the death on 7 August 2003, of the Honourable Charles Keith Jones, AO, former Federal Minister and Member of this House for the Division of Newcastle from 1958 to 1983, places on record its appreciation of his long and meritorious service, and tenders its profound sympathy to his family in their bereavement. Charles Keith Jones was born on 12 September 1917 at Newcastle, New South Wales. He was educated at Cooks Hill High School and Newcastle Technical College. He married Doreen Wright in 1939. After serving his boilermaker’s apprenticeship at the BHP steelworks, Charles Jones worked at Stewarts and Lloyds, then at the State Dockyard. Charles, or Charlie, as most people knew him, was a member of the boilermakers union and was involved with the Metal Trades Federation of Unions and the Trades Hall Council. Mr Jones was elected to the Newcastle City Council in 1946. At the age of only 39 he became Lord Mayor of Newcastle, a position he held between 1956 and 1957. He was an inaugural councillor of the Shortland County Council from 1957 until his election to federal parliament in the election of 1958. In 1958 he was elected to the House of Representatives seat of Newcastle, holding the seat until his retirement just before the general election of 1983. He was Minister for Transport from 1972 to 1975 and Minister for Civil Aviation from 1972 to 1973. He


Page 54

held several party positions whilst in opposition. As minister, he is said to have merged shipping, aviation and land transport into a single department. He served on several parliamentary committees including printing, road safety, aircraft noise and tourism. He was the Deputy Chairman of Committees from 1964 to 1967 and from 1980 to 1983. He also attended several overseas parliamentary delegations and conferences, and he frequently travelled overseas on official duties. He was awarded an Officer in the Order of Australia for service to politics and government in the 1984 Australia Day honours list. He was presented with the Queen Elizabeth II Silver Jubilee Medal in 1977. More recently, he was presented with the Centenary Medal for service to the Australian community. For those of us in this place who were there and who served with him and I was privileged to have been one of those Charlie Jones epitomised the person who might be described as having had an impeccable traditional Labor Party background. He was a very strong trade unionist and a committed supporter of the interests of working people. He rose through the ranks, so to speak, of the trade union movement. To serve on Newcastle City Council and become LordMayor of Newcastle is, indeed, by that very description, to claim fairly impeccable Labor Party credentials. They do not get much better. Occasionally, those who do not belong to that faith have crept into that position, but by and large it is the preserve of people with impeccable Labor backgrounds. Charlie Jones had a great sense of humour. I think we had one thing in common, despite our political differences: we shared a common love of Hawks Nest beach. I think Charlie used to fish there and I holidayed there with my family for a period of some 20 years. Let me say, on behalf of the government, to someone who was an old warrior for the Labor Party, that we appreciate and respect the contribution he made to public life in Australia, to his own party, to the trade union movement, to the Hunter Valley and particularly to the City of Newcastle. I particularly extend to his wife, Doreen , his children and other family members and friends our very sincere sympathy on their sad loss. Mr CREAN (Hotham Leader of the Opposition) (2.05 p.m.) ”I thank the Prime Minister for his words ofcondolence. I join with him in support of this motion in recognition of the contribution of Charlie Jones. The Labor Movement farewells one of its cherished veterans with the passing of Char- lie. He was a great reforming member of the Whitlam government. He passed away at North Lambton in Newcastle on 7 August. He was 85 years of age. Charlie joined the Labor Party in 1941. He held the seat of Newcastle for 25 years, win- ning it at 10 consecutive elections from 1958 to 1993. He was a contemporary of my father in this parliament and I remember on many occasions here the great times and fun that was had when Charlie was around. He was a great individual to be with and he had a great sense of humour. He was not only a successful minister; he was a champion for his electorate. He served it as alderman and as mayor. Of course, Newcastle, as we all know, was in his day a huge steel making and shipbuilding town. It helped us understand Charlie’s belief in the need for an Australian shipping industry, to which he was totally committed, to provide jobs and security for the people in his electorate. He was one of those people who pushed for an airport at Newcastle, and was eventually successful. He was very much a member of the labour movement of the old school. He was apprenticed to the BHP steelworks as a boilermaker, and he remained there until being elected Lord Mayor of Newcastle in 1956 at the age of 39, as the Prime Minister indicated. He was very active in his union the boilermakers union. For 14 years he was an official of the Metal Trades Federation of Unions and the Newcastle Trades Hall Council over various periods. He was, most importantly, Minister for Transport and Minister for Civil Aviation in the Whitlam government. He started a tradition of Labor transport ministers coming from the Newcastle region, followed by Peter Morris and Bob Brown. He set out to provide Australia with a modernised and properly coordinated national transport policy and infrastructure, a task in which he had extraordinary success. He was an extremely successful and hardworking minister. He was the minister who initiated the construction of the Tarcoola to Alice Springs railway line, the starting point of the Alice to Darwin railway. His other achievements include the establishment of Australian National Railways; the introduction of Commonwealth grants to the states to improve urban transport, which until then had been solely a state concern; the Road GrantsAct, which provided federal funding to help divert traffic from residential areas and improve safety; and the establishment of the interstate commission to coordinate interstate transport policy. He oversaw the passing of the National Roads Act that created a national system of federally funded highways. He was also minister at the time of the purchase by Qantas of the first of the Boeing 747 jumbo jets and gave permission for the Concorde to fly to Australia. He was, by any standards, over a very short period of time a very active minister. In subsequent comments about Charlie, the Prime Minister of the day, Gough Whitlam, referred to him as the most effective and creative transport minister in Australia’s history. He was a minister responsible for bringing Charles Halton from Britain to run the department of transport. Interestingly, Gough was asked by a journalist what would happen to the government if he were to fall under a bus. Gough paid tribute to the success of Charlie Jones by replying, “With the improvements my government has initiated in urban transport, this is unlikely to happen.I said earlier that he was a traditional Labor man of the old school. On matters of immigration he shared many of the values and beliefs of


Page 55

the party of the fifties and the sixties. Those times have changed, but much of Charlie’s policy legacy endures. He was a nation builder, he was a champion for his community and he came in the great tradition of federal Labor ministers. To the end he shared Labor â€™s compassion for the underdog. At the age of 83 he was still active in his local community, criticising Newcastle Council plans to reduce rates in high income areas. At all of the meetings that we had in the electorate, Charlie was always there. He always wanted to keep in touch; he always wanted to remain active. He remained committed to the Labor Party to the very end. He was still a delegate to his local FEC and Secretary of the Jesmond-North Lambton branch when he passed away. He is survived by his wife, Doreen ; his daughter, Fay; his son, Ken; and their families. He was married to Doreen for 67 years. Our condolences go to Doreen and to his family. It was a great contribution by a great Labor man. This House will mourn his passing, but he leaves a great legacy. Mr ANDERSON (Gwydir ”Deputy Prime Minister) (2.11 p.m.) ”I join the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition in remembering Charlie Jones. He was known as just that: Charlie Jones. He actually had it painted on his office door. It is interesting to note over and above the comments that have been made that some of the contentious issues that he worked on have dwindled in our memories with the passage of time but others are still quite relevant. In 1975, the Anglo-French manufacturers of the Concorde flew it across the Nullarbor so that Australian officials could assess the noise effect of its sonic boom, because there were hopes that Qantas would buy the aircraft. Charlie Jones travelled to a remote homestead to listen so that he could report. He was able to say that the noise ˜would not have satisfied your kids or my grandchildren on cracker nightz’. Concorde’s sonic boom never became a problem, of course, and it now never will. Charlie Jones ruled out Goulburn as an airport site because of its distance from Sydney, as a matter of interest. He ridiculed, too, a suggestion to build a floating airport. Both options are still considered from time to time, even though it is now quite clear that Sydney may never need a second airport. He also proposed that the Australian government should take over the New South Wales railway system. In a letter to the Sydney Morn- ing Herald he said, “A national rail system would have the means to overcome the disadvantages inherent in state oriented decision making which has seriously inhibited the introduction of many long-overdue improvements and economies. Thirty years later we are still working with New South Wales on a planâ€”hopefully soon to come to fruitionâ€”to ensure the integration of the New South Wales interstate track into a truly national grid allowing for continuous operation from Brisbane to Melbourne to Adelaide to Perth. Charlie Jones retired from parliament in 1983. I join with the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition in expressing my condolences to his family and his friends. Ms GRIERSON (Newcastle) (2.13 p.m.) “As the current member for Newcastle, I rise to speak in condolence for Hon. Charles Keith Jones, affectionately known as C.K. or Charlie to all of us. Charlie Jones was a Labor man who became a true Labor leader. His grandfather was a founding member of the ALP in Newcastle, and Charlie remained until his death an active ALP member and supporter. Charlie was an active delegate to my Newcastle FEC and was regarded by other delegates as the guardian of Labor values and traditions. We were fortunate for his guidance. Charles Keith Jones represented the people of Newcastle as a councillor and as their member in the Australian parliament for a period of 36 years in total. In that time, Charlie never lost sight of his role and purpose. For him, public office was a privilege, and representing the working people was the greatest tribute and honour anyone could aspire to. His sense of duty to the people was always his guide, and the real test, he said, that should apply to any government and their decisions. Charlie Jones was a Tighes Hill boy, educated at his local primary school and then at Cooks Hill High School. These were suburbs where hardship and struggle built vibrant and strong communities. He was a working man and a true believer in the fair go. After serving his apprenticeship he worked as a boilermaker at BHP and the State Dockyard at a time when shipbuilding and steel making ruled our town. His experiences made him a champion of the working man with a deep commitment to an industrial way of life which built the city of Newcastle but which sadly is now disappearing. He took up that cause through the boilermakers union and later in public office. As a councillor for 12 years he became the youngest ever Mayor of Newcastle and the first Labor man to hold that high office. A visible legacy of his term in council is Blackbutt Nature Reserve in the heart of our city, which Charlie helped to have preserved for the people of Newcastle to enjoy forever. He went on to become the third member for Newcastle, serving from 1958 to 1983. In that time, Charlie was never arrogant and never reserved in speaking out for Newcastle. In Old Parliament House he shared a tiny office with Tom Uren, Frank Crean and Jim Cairns”all Labor legends. Tom referred to Charlie as a very good minister and one of the straight left. There was no nonsense with Charlie; he was forthright and frank in his views and always called a spade a bloody shovel. In his maiden speech


Page 56

as a member of the opposition backbench he pondered the governmentâ€™s failure to rise to the challenges in our electorate of Newcastle: ever-growing unemployment resulting from technological change, the crisis in affordability and quality of housing, the appalling demise of the shipbuilding industry and the ongoing plight of pensioners. Those causes were dear to his heart forever. In his first speech he stated that mechanisation was welcomed, but he demanded for the working class movement the right to share in the proceeds. I quote Charlie’s words about the productivity gains from mechanisation, which typified his view of equity and social justice: ˜It should not be a one-way ticket with the employing class reaping all the benefits.â€™ Charlie would say that is as true today as it was then. He also spoke of the then government’s attempts to weaken the trade union movement, and claimed that the government of that day had been elected on hollow catchcries and not realities. He urged that government to invest in a coal based chemical and liquid fuel industry for this country. He still held those views. He also criticised the government for their failure to grant Newcastle a television licence, their failure to support a local airportâ€”which we now haveâ€”and their neglect of the shipbuilding industry. Foreign flags and the demise of the Australian National Line came in for special mention. Charlie would have been very pleased with the recent High Court decision upholding Australian working conditions for those employed on ships in Australian waters. As Minister for Transport in the Whitlam government from 1972 to 1975 and as Minister for Civil Aviation from 1972 to 1973, C.K. Jones was part of an amazing time in Australiaâ€™s history. His greatest achievements included pioneering the national high- way system we know today and merging shipping, land transport and aviation into one department. In that era it was the custom to name trains after public figures. Two Australian National Line locomotives were named the Gough Whitlam and the Charlie Jones â€” a powerful combination indeed. Perhaps not quite in the sprit of bipartisanship, the locomotive named the William McMahon was inevitably known by Charlie as the â€˜Puffing Billyâ€™. Charlie Jones is on the record as taking a point of order seeking clarification from the then Speaker, Sir Billy Snedden. The Speaker had stated that a question can be asked but the questioner is not entitled to demand an answer to his question. Charlie rose on a point of order asking for clarification and whether that meant that question time should really be called questions without answers. He was quite an astute man. But Charlie Jones was also a family man and a friend to many. He will be missed. On behalf of the people of Newcastle and his colleagues here, past and present, I convey my condolences and sincere sympathy to Charlieâ€™s family: his wife, Doreen ; his son, Ken; his daughter, Fay; and to other family members and friends. Doreen was his very much adored and usually obeyed wife. She was always part of Charlieâ€™s strength and achievements and deserves our special thanks; and also condolences for the loss of her lifetime partner. The last time I spoke to Charlie was at the last meeting of the Jesmond and North Lambton branch of the ALP. He told me that he and Doreen were ageing and that she was ready to leave and move to a smaller home. He told me, though, that his North Lambton home was good enough for him and always would be and that he never wanted to leave the electorate of Newcastle. Charlie had his way in the end and can now rest in peace. I was very privileged to have his support and encouragement, and I register my thanks for that. When preselection came for the seat of Newcastle, he told me straight that the candidate should be a man of the trades and industry. He told me, though, that a daughter of the working class, from a family of miners, dockers and wharfies, who grew up in Tighes Hill would have to be good enough for him. I will always try to be good enough for him. So, Charlie, the people of Newcastle and I salute and thank you. Question agreed to, honourable members standing in their places. 282 Christ Church Cathedral, Newcastle, Wednesday 13 August 2003, 1.30pm It is appropriate that the State Funeral for Charles Keith Jones should be held at this landmark cathedral in Newcastle. In 1947, aged 30, he was elected an alderman of the City of Greater Newcastle, which was created in 1938 when the Stevens Government amalgamated 11 independent Council areas, including his birthplace. In 1956 - 57 he served as the first Labor and the youngest Lord Mayor of Newcastle. From 1957 to 1959 he was an inaugural councillor of the Shortland County Council. In November 1958 he was elected as the member for Newcastle in the House of Representatives. Being eager to promote regional government, I soon came to know him and to enjoy Doreen’s roast dinners. In March 1960 he had the foresight to vote for me as the Deputy Leader of the Federal Parliamentary Labor Party; I was 14 months older than he but much younger than my three rivals. Dean Lawrence and the Jones family have asked that my eulogy should concentrate on Charlie Jones’s parliamentary career. In February 1967 I was elected as Leader of the Party and he was elected to the Caucus Executive. I introduced the system of shadow ministers and gave him responsibility for transport, including shipbuilding and stevedoring. He made an extensive official tour of Europe and the USA from July to December 1967, including attendance at the UN General Assembly. He visited Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong in


Page 57

January 1968. He became the best informed member of the Parliament on operating and regulating all forms of transport by sea, land and air, particularly in the Federal systems of the United States, Canada and Germany. He understood the Federal jurisdiction over trade and commerce with other countries and among the States under paragraph (i) and over railways in particular under three other paragraphs of section 51 of the Constitution. He also understood the Parliament’s powers with respect to navigation and shipping and State railways under sections 98 to 104 of the Constitution. I was elected Prime Minister on 2 December 1972 and my ministers were elected on 18 December. In the McMahon Ministry there had been a Minister for Shipping and Transport and a Minister and an Assistant Minister for Civil Aviation. Charlie Jones assumed the responsibilities of all three. It is beyond question that Charlie proved the most innovative and successful transport minister in Australian history. It is beyond question that he inspired the next two most successful transport ministers, Peter Morris and Bob Brown from this region. In the House of Representatives last Monday afternoon tributes were paid to Charlie by the leaders of the Liberal, Labor and National Parties and Sharon Grierson, the MP for Newcastle. John Howard acknowledged Charlie’s great sense of humour and their common love of Hawk’s Nest. I interpolate that Charlie’s friendships transcended party divisions; he exchanged racing tips with Jim Killen. Simon Crean recalled that, when a journalist asked me what would happen to the Government if I fell under a bus, I responded that, with Charlie Jones’s improvements in public transport, that was unlikely to happen. Later, in the Senate, John Faulkner recalled that, discussing PNG air services with Chief Minister Michael Somare, Charlie expostulated, ‘Look, Michael, you can argue till you’re black in the face, but it’s that Ansett who’s the nigger in the wood pile.’ This occurred in the Old Parliament House Committee Room No. 2 on the morning of Wednesday 17 January 1973. Charlie knew Michael. He had first flown round PNG with my wife Margaret, Lance Barnard and me in July and August 1960. Charlie attended the sessions of the European Conference of Ministers of Transport in Paris in December 1973, in Vienna in June 1974 and in Copenhagen in June 1975. In 1973 he sought a report from Sofrerail, the French National Railways Organisation, on the electrification of the metropolitan railways in Brisbane and Perth. Early in 1975 he sought a report from Sofrerail on long distance electrification. Both reports recommended the 25,000 volts AC system instead of the 1500 volts DC system used on the Melbourne and Sydney networks. Queensland was an outstanding beneficiary. With a two-to-one subsidy under my Government’s Urban Public Transport Acts, the Bjelke-Petersen Government introduced electric trains in Brisbane and built a bridge for them over the Brisbane River in 1979. Charlie developed a standard design for a modern Australian Urban Passenger Train; the AUPT specification was later used as the basis for the design of the Queensland Electric Motor Unit rail cars. Australia’s longest electric train service was introduced between Brisbane and Rockhampton in 1989 and was later extended to Emerald. Electric locomotives haul coal trains to Mackay. Much later, Perth secured 25,000 volt AC trains. NSW, however, in 1984 and 1986 extended the 1500 volts system to Newcastle and the Illawarra; that system is futile for freight. In April 1974, as a first instalment of the long-promised railway to Darwin, Don Dunstan and I made an agreement to construct a flood-free standard gauge railway from Tarcoola to Alice Springs, a distance of 830 kilometres. It was the longest railway project undertaken in Australia for 60 years. In April 1975 the train carrying dignitaries for the commencement of construction was hauled by the newest Australian National Railways locomotives, Gough Whitlam and Charlie Jones. They were a powerful combination. Sharon Grierson recalled that Charlie called the immediately preceding locomotive ‘Puffing Billy’. The railway was completed on time and within budget. In October 1974 Charlie Jones introduced a bill to enact an agreement made between Dunstan and me – my signature was witnessed by Laurie Oakes – to complete the standard gauge railway from Perth to Adelaide. The Fraser Government tried to cancel the agreement; construction commenced in October 1980 and was completed in May 1984. It was left to the Keating Government to complete the standard gauge from Fremantle to the port of Brisbane; it was too late to consummate Dunstan’s and my aspiration to make Adelaide the surface transport hub of Australia. None of Dunstan’s hopeless successors had helped. Charlie was indefatigable in reading all official reports in his Department and all contracts with his Department, such as the purchase of machinery from Bloehm-Voss for our ports or the new B747 from Boeing; he secured offsets for Australian-made wings and windows in the aircraft. Charlie was a singularly successful legislator. The Senate passed all six of his bills in 1973, all 16 of his bills in 1974 and six of his bills in 1975. His Navigation Bill 1975 had been introduced in the Senate on 16 October but had not been debated before the coup d’état on 11 November. His Appropriation (Urban Public Transport) Bill 1975 and Roads Act (Amendment) Bill 1975 had been introduced in the House on 30 October but had not been debated before the coup.

On this occasion we extend our heartfelt sympathy to Doreen, who was married to Charlie for 64 years, to their children, Fay and Ken, and to their children. They must be proud of Charlie’s immense achievements. We who were his political contemporaries respect his dedicated and tireless efforts to make world class transport structures available to all Australians. Our successors must realise that there will never be sufficiently swift, safe and clean freight movements in our Eastern States unless they revive his dream of a standard gauge railway with a 25,000 volt AC electrification system between our three most populous capitals. We should all remember Charlie Jones. 280 Children: Fay Ken 1.1.3.2.6.3.1 Fay JONES280 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.3.2 Ken JONES280 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.4 Harry Mervyn WRIGHT (Private, Male)157,283 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Spouse: Sadie Margaret SUTTON157 1.1.3.2.6.5 John WRIGHT (Private, Male)157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Spouse: Nellie157 Children: Wayne Barry Sharon Susan 1.1.3.2.6.5.1 Wayne WRIGHT157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.5.2 Barry WRIGHT157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.5.3 Sharon WRIGHT157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.5.4 Susan WRIGHT157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.6.6 Thomas WRIGHT (Private, Male)157 ————————————————————————————————————————————— 1.1.3.2.7 Vincent C WRIGHT284 ————————————————————————————————————————————— Birth: 1893, Adamstown, NSW, Australia284 Death: 1893, Adamstown, NSW, Australia285
