One of the noticeable facts is that there has been a great falling off in all manner of crime. “In view of the unemployment existing, and, just recently, the darkening of the city, it might have been expected that there would have been an increase," said a court official to a representative of the Press. ’’ The number of cases coming forward has been reduced to a minimum, however.” The Invercargill tourist office has received advice that the Milford Track season will be opened on November 16 (states the Southland Daily News).
