WAITING FOR A SHIP
AUSTRALIAN GIRLS MARRY
WIVES OF U.S.A. SERVICEMEN
Several hundreds of Australian girls; who have married American servicemen have applied to a travel agency for passages to the United States. So far few of them have been able to leave Australia owing to transport difficulties.
Many of the girls now in Sydneyhave travelled from Western Australia and have been waiting for six weeks in the hope of obtaining passages. Their husbands have left Australia, either serving in the battle areas in the north or have returned to the United States. Five Western Australian wives have been in Sydney nine weeks and their money is running low.
