Squatting by house-hungry civilians in premises vacated by the services is still going on in Sydney. The latest example is that of two families totalling four adults and three children who moved into an empty iron Nissen nut at the Royal Naval Depot at Moore Park on Monday. When leaving the hut to purchase food one of the squatters was told that if he stepped outside he would be taken into custody. The squatters decided to stay in the hut until they were forcibly ejected. A Royal Navy spokesman said to-day that the action to be. taken against the squatters would have to be decided by the flag officer in charge at Sydney. In the meantime security police are patrolling the area in the immediate vicinity
