“NEW ZEALAND: PACIFIC PIONEER” (Rec. 10.40.) NEW YORK, Sept. 3. The “New York Sun,” lengthily reviewing Philip Soljak’s “New Zealand: Pacific Pioneer,” says: “It is doubly welcome as so little is known about New Zealand here, and particularly so because there is no nonsense about it, the author being careful to give nothing but facts. Soljalc emphasises that it is a mistaken tendency to confuse New Zealand with Australia by using the term “Australasia,” which Australians favour but New Zealanders dislike intensely'. 1 “Soljalc says New Zealand’s cultural, political and economic ties with Britain are so strong that New Zealand would enjoy as little advantage in breaking off with her as California would in seceding from the United States.”
