This Was A Newspaper Office

This flat-bed printing press (it is embedded in concrete and apparently defied even the Aus tralian troops) is all that remains of the “Papuan Courier” press in Port Moresby, Papua. The build ing which housed the printing works has disappeared, and this sole remaining piece of machinery is rusty and partly covered with vines. Mr. E. A. James, who owned the “Papuan Courier,” can not buy machinery to replace that which was lost during the occu pation era, and the Territory of Papua-New Guinea to-day has no newspaper.
