jets And Tourists
Any country that wanted business from the coming jet airliners should be ready to receive them, said Mr Ralph, S. Cohen, public relations officer for the International Air Transport Association, in Auckland. The jets, he said, would bring a volume and a kind of traffic the world had not experienced. It would be mostly tourist traffic. Peru, Chile and Argentina compared with New Zealand in distance from America, but even now those countries were getting the tourist. Peru was a rival in deep-sea fishing and Argentina and Chile had good trout fishing in the lakes. Mr Cohen said he felt New Zealand had wonderful raw material for a tourist industry, but the country, like any raw material, needed to be processed.
