N.Z. CURRENCY IN AUSTRALIA
LOSSES BY TRAVELLERS REPORTED SYDNEY, December 24. A number of instances in which New Zealanders who have come to Sydney have sacrificed New Zealand notes at a discount of 25 per cent, have been reported to the New Zealand Trade Commissioner. One man who arrived by the Awatea yesterday accepted £BO in Australian notes in exchange for £IOO in New Zealand money. “I know it is robbery,” he said, “but it was either do that or remain broke over the holidays.”
