CHRISTMAS IN N.S.W.
Rec. 9 a.m. SYDNEY, Dec. 25. New South Wales had a quiet Christmas. In Sydney there were some noisy celebrations, but the crowds were goodhumoured. For the first time since the traffic restrictions had been imposed, traffic moved freely—there were some vacant seats in some trains moving to the country. There was little serious crime. A man was stabbed in Newcastle, and his wife has been charged with murder. Two Sydney police sergeants were injured when breaking up brawling crowds. Police say drunkenness in the city was higher than for many years past.
