After Princess Louise's funeral, Arthur's mood was very heavy.
But at this moment, there were clearly more important things for Arthur to attend to, and the busy state of national affairs hardly allowed him to dwell on his personal grief.
Because of his mother Princess Louise's funeral, Arthur's previously planned visits to Douglas Aircraft Company and Boeing Company had been postponed for several months.
He was originally supposed to see Australasia's newest transport aircraft at the beginning of the year, but now he could only wait until March.
Before March arrived, Arthur convened a Cabinet Meeting and officially determined the main direction for the development of the Australasian Empire in 1935: to continuously expand the quantity of weapons and equipment, and of strategic supplies.
At the end of February, Arthur agreed to the Ministry of Defense's request, and military factories began full-scale production of weapons and equipment.
