TRADE IN U.S.A.

A BRIGHTER OUTLOOK

(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.") AUCKLAND, 26th January. ""When I left America there was an undertone of improvement in commerce which was very gratifying to hear," said Mr. Frederick T. Norris, vice-pre-sident of the First National Bank and tho Bay County Bank, Bay City, Michigaty, Mho arrived by the Aorangi en route to Sydney. "I believe that things financially will start to look up in May. The improvement after that will not be rapid, and for years tho price level may not be so high as it has been, but times will not be anything like what | they are now.' -' A vigorous advertising campaign in America is, in Mr. Norris's opinion, what New Zealand needs to encourage tourist trade. "Ninety per cent, of the. people in the block where I live close their houses and go away for the winter vacation every year," he said, "but where do they go? A great many never think of going further than Honolulu, but that is only because nobody urges them to go anywhere else. There is a great opportunity for New Zealand there."
