ATTITUDE OF BRITAIN NEW MARKETS ESSENTIAL LONDON, March 2S " In consequence of the British attitude, New Zealand must seek new markets," said Sir James Parr, the High Commissioner for the Dominion, at a largely-attended ceremony at New Zealand House, the object of which was to advertise the commencement of the apple season. " Though the British threat of restrictions on imports of produce i'rom New Zealand is serious for us," said Sir James, "we must recognise that she is within her rights. Nevertheless, we cannot afford to sit down under it. The Fruit Board already is reaching out for alternative markets, and is selling more to the United States than in any previous year. Also it is attacking the Scandinavian, Moroccan' and Egyptian markets." Miss Marie Ney, a noted actress, who was educated in Wellington, New, Zealand, opened an artistic exhibition of fruit, aj> which Misses Oliver Kay and Bessie Gaisford, who have entered for the British open golf championship, were guests' of honour.
