ECONOMIC SICKNESS
Conditions in America LITTLE BETTER OUTLOOK “From what I have heard I really believe you are better off iu this country than we are iu America,” said Mr. L. T. Highleyman, of Miami, Florida, who arrived at Wellington by the Makura from San Francisco yesterday morning. Mr. Highleyman, who is an ex-banker, is on a world tour, and it is his intention to remain iu the Dominion until early in the New Year, when he will proceed to Australia. “We have had a long spell of sickness, but a time comes when one has to get well,” said Mr. Highleyman, in discussing economic conditions gener-. ally. “All we have to do is to keep our pecker up and we will be all right. 1 think things are picking up a little, although less in America than here. I really believe you are better off than we are in the States.” Mr. A. A. Dole, of Sah Francisco, who is a through passenger for Sydney aboard the Makura, said that in his opinion conditions were improving in America, particularly on the Pacific Coast The Golden Gate bridge across San Francisco harbour, which was to be the biggest in the world, was causing a better feeling.
