MR. NASH’S VISIT INTEREST IN AIRMEN ' (Special Correspondent.) (9 a.m.) LONDON, Aug. 16. There are indications that the visit of Mr. W. Nash, New Zealand Minister at Washington, to London, is drawing to a close. He has been very busy for a week concluding the business on which fie hopes for a decision before returning to Washington. There is no doubt that the visit has been very, useful to New Zealand while Mr. Nash has not spared himself, working usually until after midnight. One of his last engagements before leaving will probably be to visit a famous group of the Fighter Command where he will meet prominent New Zealand airmen.' Mr. Nash has been greatly interested in the work of the Royal New Zealand Air Force in Britain. One of the highlights of his visit was last week’s flying tour of stations, which obviously impressed itself on his mind, one of his subsequent comments being: “There is no finer inspiration .than to have the privilege of hearing the cream of the country’s youth being briefed for a raid and being -told what they are expected to do.”
