释义 |
McAnaney was educated at a state school and at Scotch College. He worked for the National Bank after graduating high school, and studied accountancy and commerce at night. In 1934, he began farming at Langhorne Creek. He attempted to enlist for service in World War II, but was rejected and served in the Volunteer Defence Corps. He also served as chairman of the District Council of Strathalbyn and had been state and federal president of the Australian Primary Producers Union. He unsuccessfully contested a 1956 federal by-election as an independent prior to his entrance into state politics; although the Liberal and Country League easily retained the seat, McAnaney received 7.4 percent of the vote.[2][3][4] References1. ^http://www2.parliament.sa.gov.au/FormerMembers/Detail.aspx?PId=3673 {{s-start}}{{s-par|au-sa}}{{s-bef|before=William Jenkins}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Stirling|years=1963–1970}}{{s-aft|after=Electorate abolished}}{{s-bef|before=New electorate}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Heysen|years=1970–1975}}{{s-aft|after=David Wotton}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:MacAnaney, William}}{{Australia-politician-stub}}2. ^Australian federal by-elections: Adam Carr 3. ^{{cite journal | title=Australian Political Chronicle, July-December 1956 | journal=Australian Journal of Politics and History | year=1957 | volume=2 | issue=2 | pages=242}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article185631818 |title=TO CONTEST BARKER |newspaper=Victor Harbour Times |volume=46, |issue=2265 |location=South Australia |date=5 October 1956 |accessdate=3 October 2016 |page=3 |via=National Library of Australia}} 5 : Members of the South Australian House of Assembly|1910 births|1987 deaths|Liberal and Country League politicians|20th-century Australian politicians |
