Title: Rules and regulations [Chairman's Address, Electrical Branch of Melbourne Division]
In: Journal of the Institution of Engineers, Australia
Imprint: vol. 4, no. 5, May 1932, pp. 185-186
Description: Retiring Chairman's Address to the Electrical Branch of Melbourne Division of The Institution, on 15th March, 1932.
Abstract: Most rules are designed either to stop rogues from their roguery or to save fools from their folly. It is an unsound policy to prescribe expensive precautions simply in order to protect a fool from his folly. A set of rules should be designed to protect life and property against a normal contingency, and furthermore, any rule which must be applied generally should refer to conditions which are themselves general. Special rules may be prepared for special conditions, but they should be kept apart and not included in those to be generally applied.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
