BRACKS FUNERALS 574 Pacific Highway Chatswood. 9413 1377 FOR FAMILIES WHO PREFER AUSTRALIAN OWNED COMPANY Corporate leader 1910 2000 There are few Australians whose names are indelibly attached to the milestones of the nation's modern economic history. Sir James Vernon, who has died in Sydney at the age of 90, was one of those people. A great corporate leader, he was more widely known as the principal author of one of the most extensive inquiries ever conducted into the Australian economy.

The Vernon report took its place in a lineage of landmark industry inquiries stretching from the Brigden report in 1929 to Jackson in 1975, Crawford in 1973 and 1979 and Garnaut in 1989. In 1963, then Prime Minister Sir Robert Menzies appointed Vernon chairman of the inquiry which, when it delivered its report in 1965, recommended important changes to Australia's regime of tariff protection and the establishment of an alternative source of economic advice to government to challenge the dominance of the Federal Treasury. It was prescient in warning that if Australia did not save more, use its resources more efficiently and become a more substantial manufacturing exporter, it would face severe balance of payments difficulties, which would have to be met by "selling off the farm" of Australian assets to foreigners. The report also contained wide-ranging criticisms of government policy, from the Commonwealth's refusal to employ married women to its record on higher education and road accident prevention. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the report was not well received by the government which had requested it: Menzies went so far as to dismiss it in a statement to Parliament for exceeding its terms of reference, while its economic projections were questioned by, the then Treasurer, Harold Holt.

The Menzies Government did not take up the policy recommendations of the challenging report, and it was left to gather dust, although it remained of great interest to economists, and contributed significantly to the tariff debate which was continue for the next three decades. Vernon was one of Australia's leading businessmen, serving as a director of several major companies and playing a prominent role in the nation's. business organisations and institutions. He had a long and distinguished connection with CSR Limited. Vernon joined the company as a junior chemist in 1928, working in the research department for a number of years, even before he graduated in science at the University of Sydney in 1934.

In 1936, CSR sent him to Germany to study at the Berlin Sugar Institute, and later to London University where he gained a PhD in 1938. Reflecting his avid interest in the developing sugar industry, his thesis was about the speed of the crystallisation of sugar. Vernon rose to the rank of chief chemist in 1939, senior executive officer in 1951, then assistant general manager in 1956. He was general manager of CSR equivalent to today's managing director from 1958 until his retirement in June 1972. He then served on the CSR board as a non-executive director from 1972 to 1982, and as chairman from 1978 to 1980.

When asked about his time at CSR, Vernon once said: "I was a part of CSR. It didn't occur to me to go anywhere else. There was the ever-present feeling that I was taking part in the development of a great Ross Westcott Westcott English wife Alice, Ross Westcott was the second of three sons. Because of his travels and preoccupations he was sent to board at Knox Grammar School. He disliked this, neglected most schoolwork and pursued his own interests.

He became a cadet journalist on The Sydney Morning Herald in January, 1941, aged 17. He saw active service in the AIF in New Guinea in World War II, and afterwards married another young Herald journalist, Pat Pearse. They had three children. Their home in Gordon became a meeting place for a great variety of friends other journalists, artists, architects, musicians, poets. Anyone with a cause or enthusiasm was a candidate for this circle.

Westcott's own enthusiasms included jazz, classical music and photography. He had a darkroom under the house for produced striking pictures of high quality. His only published photography was in a book done by Ure Smith words by Pat Westcott THOMPSON, Gosford May. Hospital, July 15. late of Ettalong and formerly of Belfield.

It was during his time as a senior manager and then on the board that CSR began its evolution from a sugar company to an international, diversified conglomerate, before moving to become the international building materials group it is today.

Vernon was recognised for his public service, with the OBE, the CBE and AC. In 1965, he was created a Knight Bachelor. That year he also received the Order of the Sacred Treasure, First Class, from the Japanese Government, for his role in building the relationship between the Australian and Japanese business communities. While on the CSR board, Vernon chaired the Australian Post Office commission of inquiry 1973-74 and was chairman of CIBC Australian Ltd and Volvo Australia Pty Ltd. His other directorships included the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney Ltd, National Bank of Australia Ltd, MLC Ltd and Westham Dredging Company Pty Ltd.

Vernon always had a number of interests that he actively pursued outside of his working life; he was a founding member of the Australian Universities Commission, and he was Australian president of the Australia-Japan Business Cooperation Committee, a director of the Institute of Respiratory Medicine, international president of the Pacific Basin Economic Council, chairman of the Manufacturing Industries Advisory Council and vicepresident of the Australian Industries Development Association. He served with Henry Kissinger on the Chase Manhattan Bank International Advisory Committee chaired by David Rockefeller and was also a member of the Wells Fargo International Advisory Council. Vernon was essentially a on the then unfinished Sydney Opera House. The moody photographs, in different lights and times of day, exploit the fascinating shapes and intersections of the structural elements before they became submerged in the great building itself. There is also a memorable picture of the Opera House architect, Joern Utzon, scaling a ladder on one of the shells.

He left the Herald in the mid'50s to work at The Daily Telegraph, where he spent some years on the foreign desk. Later he went to the Daily Mirror, but when a vacancy occurred on the subs' desk at the Sunday Telegraph his old colleagues voted to attract him back.

Proudly Australian Personally Owned Tuesday, July 18, 2000 quiet and modest man and it was no surprise that after his retirement, as well as pursing his love of music, he had more time to indulge in his passion for fly fishing chasing the elusive trout and salmon from Alaska to the rivers of the Snowy Mountain region. He was an enthusiastic fly fisherman before he was 10 years old, and spent annual holidays camping with his father and family friends on the Fly River near Oberon. In his final years he spent much time fishing with his former CSR colleagues. A methodical and analytical man, he enjoyed the fine, patient work of cabinetmaking, and always had a wellequipped workshop for this purpose. The desk he used in his study at home, until the day he died, had been carefully crafted by him.

In his later years, he became an excellent cook. Having long prepared Sunday night supper for the family, he took up cooking in earnest after his wife, Pat, died in 1980. "Like the industrial chemist he was, he got out the cookbooks, followed the instructions to the letter and made really superb minestrones, curries, various varieties of said his daughter Ann. "He was very exact. He was no extemporaneous cook; he always weighed things precisely virtually using a chemical balance.
