CARDINAL’S VIEWS ON POPULATION
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, This Day. Agreeing that New Zealand and Australia needed much larger populations, Cardinal Gilroy at a press conference today emphasised that the most desirable increase was a natural increase.
His Eminence said it was most desirable that there should be a return to the families of the pioneering days. It was understandable that settlers were wanted from the British Isles, but Britain wished to keep her citizens so that the Dominion must look elsewhere. Many displaced people in Europe would gladly come and they should, provided they were willing to conform to the way of life here. j- i “America is an example,” Cardinal Gilroy said. “We would do well to encourage them.”
