TOURIST TRAFFIC.
PRAISE FOR NEW ZEALAND. Mr. P. J. Marks, of Sydney, stated on his return from a visit to New Zealand, that he was particularly impressed by the excellent arrangements made.for tourists in various centres of the Dominion, and by the splendid services of motor-cars by which it was possible to visit all points of interest with the minimum of trouble. Mr. Marks said that while in Wellington he met a special commissioner from America, whom the New Zealand Government had invited to the Dominion to study the scenic attractions, the idea being that on his return to the United States he would, by lecturing and other means, induce tourists to visit New Zealand. Mr. Marks suggested that the New South Wales Tourist Bureau could learn much by studying the methods of New Zealand. He said that it was almost impossible to obtain in the Dominion literature relating to> New South Wales, or even Australia, whereas at every hotel and elsewhere there was a mass of information available about the Dominion’s own attractions.
