NO BEGGARS MET
VISITOR TO NEW ZEALAND. BETTER OFF THAN N.S.W. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) Sydney, September 24. Dr Hall, a former Attorney-General for New South Wales, said that from his observations the people of New Zealand were not nearly so much affected by the depression as the people of New South Wales. “I spent more than three weeks in Auckland and Wellington and no beggar asked me for a shilling, no street musician sang to me, and no pavement artist sought to evoke charity,” he said. “New Zealand seems to have many untouched sources of revenue, which have been fully exploited in Australia. One outstanding contrast between New Zealand and New South Wales is the regard New Zealand ' people have for Parliament.”
