FEDERAL PREMIER
UNLIKELY TO VISIT WASHINGTON THIS YEAR. (Bv Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) CANBERRA, August 27. The Prime Minister. Mr Curtin, is not likely to visit Washington this year, political observers say. One reason for his not accepting the invitation is that he dislikes air travel. The Labour Party also ruled that the Prime Minister should not leave Australia m war time, but this objection could be overcome if Mr Curtin felt he should go. However, he is known to have held a sincere belief that his most important work lies in Australia. A message from Washington on Wednesday said that President Roosevelt announced that he had invited the Prime Ministers of Australia and South Africa to visit him some time this year to confer on the progress of the war.
