EASIER ENTRY FOR TOURISTS
Suggestion of Visitor
The opinion that New Zealand might do more t«o encourage the easy entry of tourists was advanced by Mr. J. S. Edstrom, a prominent business man of Sweden, at a complimentary luncheon to him yesterday. Mr. Edstrom said, though he did Hot want to criticise New Zealand, he thought New Zealand should open itself more to tourists. He suggested, too, that it would be a welcome facility to tourists if the Government, through the consular offices, could issue a tourist with a visa without the present deposit of £lO/10/-. Possibly this deposit was an encumbrance which prevented as many tourists coming to New Zealand as the beaiiblos of the country justified. Most tourists, he said, had no time to spend being cross-examined about what they had done in New Zealand.
