Interview with Bill Clark (When the war came to Australia)

Interview with Mr Bill Clark. Mr Clark discusses selling newspapers in the city of Adelaide in 1942. American servicemen would constantly ask him where they could get their shoes cleaned, so eventually Mr Clark and a friend bought some tins of polish and rags from home and used an old bread box to shine the servicemen's shoes. The Adelaide News approached him and explained that a businessman in Adelaide wanted to send them a proper shoeshine kit and a story about it was run on the front page. Mr Clark recalls that as he was a child at the time he never worried about the war. He also mentions propaganda against the Japanese.
