Title
South Australian Recruiting Tour at Beachport
Description

During World War I, in 1915, Prime Minister Billy Hughes promised Britain an extra 50,000 reinforcements. South Australia's share of this was to be 5,600 men. The State War Council and the South Australian Railways responded by twice dispatching a recruiting train to various parts of the state in 1916, first in March and then in April. Premier Crawford Vaughan, personally, addressed these crowds on the tours.
