Migrants For Australia
(Rec. 11.20 a.m.) MELBOURNE, This Day.
Officers of the American Federal Bureau of Investigation were reported to have been planted aboard the migrant ship General Heintzelman, which arrived from Naples. A United States Army officer on the ship’s administrative staff said that he felt certain that Federal agents were among the 822 passengers to make sure that Communists did not enter Australia under the guise of displaced persons, and that members of the ship’s crew did not trade in narcotics. He suggested that another task of the agents was to prevent Communist propaganda from being spread among the passengers.
