MANILA, (U P )— The number
of “round-the-world girls" to ar­
rive in Manila la Increasing month
by month and threatens to be­
come a problem for the considera­
tion of the American authorities.
“Round-the-world girls" Is the
name given to hundreds of Ameri­
can girls who. In an attack of
waadsrlnst and tired of the re­
straints of home, set ont west-
restless age.
Their first stop Is usually Hon-
lulu where they work as steno­
graphers, newspaper reporters,
guides, clerks and some less dig­
nified positions; and write home
about Waikiki Beach, moonlight
and nkeleles.
They save and
think of the day when they will
board a ship for Japan and
China. Their plan Is to stop in
each place Just long enough to
save money for the next hop.
Trouble arises when they fldd

Of course stranded round-the-
world girls never quite reach the
stave of thelrt male counterpart
in the Far East, the beachcomber,
but not infrequently their prob­
lem must be settled by voluntary
subscription and no question ask-
ed.

and there is nothing between
them and the end of their adven­
ture but a bard Job in some office
which pays JuBt enough to live
on.
The result Is that they usually
reach Manila with their last

very wet. Their eyes are no long­

the parents have come to the
rescue with the price of a ticket
to New York.
