EMPIRE SHOPPING WAVE
NEW ZEALAND’S PRODUCTS AT HOME
“I am firmly convinced that it would pay New Zealand to spend a considerable sum annually in advertising New Zealand’s products in England,” said Dlr. A. F. Roberts, Commissioner for New Zealand at the Wembley Exhibition, who returned to Wellington yesterday. “Wembley has done its. part well. There is quite a wave of Empire shopping passing over England at the present time, as the result of the awakening of the people to a knowledge of what the Empire overseas . means through what it produces. It is for. us to sustain' that spirit as well as we can. With our £40,000,000 to £50,000,000 worth of products every year, it is sureIv worth while spending a big sum each year to keep that market buoyant. Our products are ti e best the world can give, and Engkmd really wants them, but she has to be told about them year in and vear out.”
