every 10 Australians favor calling out single women for war work if needed Overwhelming sentiment was also found for putting war prison ers to work harvesting the crops and for limiting the pay of con scientious objectors to the same pay as army privates showing that 57 per cent of those interviewed believe Australia state governments should be done away with while 19 per cent think they should be retained and 24 per cent are undecided The majority apparently feels that division of authority be tween the states and the federal government is hampering full execution of the war effort Ever since the six Australian states were federated under a con stitution in 1901 the issue of the states versus the federal govern ment was precipitated a contro versy almost as lively as that in the United
