We watched the trip across- Siberia, most anxiously for everyone knew this was the most difficult part of the journey. The broadcasting from Los-- Angeles was picked up and for hours here men’ lay in their bunks and listened to the descriptions elf the crowds and the motor-cars filling the roads round the field; They almost imagined themselves back home. Then came word that the ship was sighted and was waiting for daylight to come to moor.
