Removal Of Artificial Barriers Welcomed
I am glad that the hand of Government was one of resolution and not the clammy hand of fear,” said Mr A. R. Mackay, the president of the Canterbury Chamber of Commerce, when Commenting on the free trade agreement between New Zealand and Australia.
“Safeguards are necessary, but any step, however faltering, towards the removal of
artificial barriers between the exchange of real wealth is to be welcomed,” he said. “The Tasman in 1965 is only two hours wide arid, to paraphrase Tennyson, perhaps we shall see the heavens fill with commerce and argosies of magic sails, pilots of the purpie twilight dropping down with costly bales, and the common sense of man holding a fretful realm in awe.”
