Lord Nuffield Arrives On Brief Visit
•'JUST HAD TO COME" Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, Feb. 14. “Though it meant six days’ travel for a stay of a day and a-half, I just had to come. I couldn’t have all my friends in New Zealand saying I had come ail the way to Australia and had gone home without seeing them,” said Lore Nuffield on his arrival by the Awatea this afternoon. “We in England are not worrying anything like as much as you are here concerning the European situation,” he said. “I would not say, however, that the people are not worrying, but I don’t think we shall become entangled in any of these wars. Industry is not worried, and the manufacture of armaments and gas masks is not causing concern among the British people. In Australia and New Zealand there seems to be a feeling that armament manufacturing is the only busy industry in England, but that is not so. When the making of armaments ends the men so employed will be absorbed in other channels of industry.”
