ATTRACTING TOURISTS
Business Men to Help “It occurs to me that an excellent avenue for distribution of publicity about the charms and attractions the Dominion has to offer can be opened up through the co-operation of members of your chamber,” stated a letter received by the Wellington Chamber of Commerce last night from the secretary of Industries, Commerce and Publicity, Mr. G. W. Clinkard. “If those members,” the letter continued, “who have business or other connections with firms or individuals residing overseas will be good enough to supply me with a list of addresses of people they consider would be interested in and might be attracted to our country, I will undertake to forward a supply of descriptive literature to such addresses, with a card conveying the joint compliments of the appropriate New Zealand business house and of this department. By this means we can secure a direct approach to an important class of potential tourist visitors.” “That can easily be done,” remarked the president of the chamber, Mr. D. J. McGowan, and members agreed to co-operate.
