ON BUSINESS ONLY
AMERICAN VISITOR HURRIES THROUGH
Mr Atherton Clark, from Baltimore. United States, is here on a short business visit. Every 18 months or so for the last 10 years he has spent a month in New Zealand, but he has always been too busy to see anything more than the main roads and cities, nnd, on one occasion, a glimpse of Rotorua. He is a traveller for a firm selling electrical tools, and his busv routine through New Zealand is much the same as it is through Australia. South Africa, and the East.
"I am by no means the only man who has to travel like this." he said 'ast evening. "There are many more. Wo would like to see the sichts and holiday pines, but we have only time ♦or the routes nnd the cities and towns. The only thing I have time to notice, really. i=; the state of your roads, which I think have imorovprf wonderfully since I first came here 10 years ago. "The air services make it far easier for peonle who have to travel as T rio. When you travel most of th° time you like to tret to places quickly. I use the air now, and get more time for business. "I -"ill be in rihristchurch for threp he said, "but most of my time t will be bu«y."
