BIG WELCOME PREPARED
GOVERNMENT ACTIVE
SYDNEY, 20th ,May.
According to the present tentative programme, it is conservatively. estimated that Miss Amy Johnson will hear forty-seven speeches of welcome and praise on the first four days < after ■ her arrival in Sydney. It is inevitable that the programme will have to be enlarged, as the number of organisations and individuals wishing to entertain the girl flyer has reached a staggering total. Tho Now Zealand Women's Association is" doing its part.
A number of the larger centres in Queensland and New South Wales have made requests that ' Miss Johnson, should come down when passing over on route to Sydney.
The Minister for Homo- Affairs has arranged for the appointment of a private /secretary for Miss Johnson upon arrival at Darwin, as ho" believes she will require help in dealing with the vast correspondence accumulating.
