AUSTRALIA'S HOME-
WARD SEASON.
Record Established in 1929-30.
Melbourne, July 23.
In spite of financial depression, coal and other strikes, and general unrest in Australia during the past year, the homeward season has been a record one so far as regards the number of travellers.
Returns made available by the Aberdeen and Commonwealth Line indicate that for the year July 1, 1928, to June 30, 1929, there was an average of 74 pas- sengers a boat, whereas for the year, July 1, 1929, to June 30, 1930, there was an average of 125 passengers per boat.
Leading travel agencies further announce that it was the best season they had experienced for years, in spite of the difficulties tourists had in obtaining money.
