NEW ZEALAND’S FUTURE
“BOUND TO COME THROUGH.” SIR R. ANDERSON’S VIEW. Sir Robert McC. Anderson, who returned to Sydney recently from a holiday trip to New Zealand, expressed his complete confidence in the ability of New Zealand to recover from the economic depression she is experiencing. At present, he said, New Zealanders were suffering from the type of nervousness Australians experienced when the depression was at its worst two years ago. The fundamental soundness of the New Zealand national character supplied the basis of Sir Robert’s confidence in the country’s future. “The New Zealanders are people who will face their troubles squarely, and they are bound to come through,” he declared. Although Sir Robert emphasized that he had not studied the effect of the Ottawa agreement on New Zealand, he said that it seemed to him that many New Zealanders viewed the agreement with disfavour. They had the idea that the agreement had been made “with tongue in cheek,” in such a way that is could be circumvented.
