(Special) WELLINGTON. This Day. Next-of-kin see no reason why the dates of departure and arrival of ships carrying former prisoners o' war or returning service personnel cannot be announced now that the war is over and press censorship has been lifted. When this ouestion was put to the Minister for Defence (Hon F. Jones) he replied that the Japanese were still fighting in certain areas and there was a possibility that enemy submarines might still be operating. He hoped to make an early statement dealing with the position.
