The problem of American soldiers wanting to marry Australian girls is engaging the attention of the authorities, who are doing their best to discourage such unions on the ground that the girls would lose their Australian nationality or domicile and in addition would have trouble in gaining American citizenship after the war. ,A spokesman for the American soldiers, alluding to the difficulties, said his men had been warned not to many while aboad, as when the war was over all Americans would be repatriated and those that had married would not be allowed to take their wives, but would have to provide a separate method of travel to the United Slates. Wives would also have difficulty in qualifying for domicile in America. There have already been a number of such marriages since the arrival of the Americans in Australia.
