More than 70,000 people - it may have been 100,000 or more - marched in Melbourne. There were 25,000 in Sydney, 8,000 in Brisbane, 6,000 in Adelaide, 3,000 in Perth, 3,000 in Hobart and 6,000 more in other parts of Australia". Cairns, J.F.

Don Dunstan recalled that he was summoned to Calwell's office, following the 1961 attempt, and submitted to a tirade: "He (Calwell) said it would ruin the Party if we altered the immigration policy and that it was only cranks, long hairs, academics and do-gooders who wanted the change and that the worker would never stand for it. We stood our ground. He called in Gough Whitlam and demanded that Gough, as a loyal deputy, support him. Gough said 'Wait one moment. I have been careful always to support you publicly. But inside the Party if you call me before a Party Committee and ask my opinion I will give you my own. And I think it morally indefensible that a social democratic Party should have the words "Maintenance of White Australia" in its platform.' Arthur looked as if he were about to have apoplexy". Dunstan, Don. Felicia - The Political Memoirs of Don Dunstan, Macmillan, Melbourne, 1981, p. 91; cited in: Brawley, p. 215 (endnote 14). (56) Brawley, p. 206, 217 (endnote 45).

Calwell later stated, in his autobiography, that "For political and diplomatic reasons, the 1965 Federal ALP conference removed the words 'White Australia' from the Labor Party platform. We certainly did not try to water down the policy nor take the ideal of a White Australia from the hearts and minds of the Australian people. Nobody will ever be able to do that". Calwell, A.A.

(65) Arthur Calwell was not at all impressed with the wave of middle-class people that had flowed into the ALP, or with the subsequent "New Guard" that arose. He later said, during the New Guard's attempts at immigration reform, that Gough Whitlam and Lance Barnard (later to be Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister) were in no sense "labour men". It is heavy irony that the Labor Party was finally brought to power by a brand of people who can be seen to be as actually anti-Labor. In perhaps unintentional support of Calwell's statement, Sean Brawley stated that "In the mid-1960's, James Jupp noted the strange association of Australian Labor with notions of xenophobia. He found this difficult to reconcile in a Party committed to democratic socialism. Yet by the time the ALP finally overcame this xenophobia many commentators claimed the Party had become little more than the Party of a petty bourgeoisie." Brawley, pp. 211, 213.
