PARTICIPATION IN CONFERENCE
GOVERNOR-GENERAL’S WISHES. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland, Last Night. The importance of New Zealand’s representation at the World Economic Conference was emphasised by Lord Bledisloe when speaking at a teacher’s refresher course at the Auckland Training College to-day. “The announcement of the New Zealand delegation to the conference is a landmark in the history of the Dominion,” said His Excellency. “We all wish every success to the mission of the Prime Minister and the Minister of Industries and Commerce. There is no country in the Empire so dependent for its economic existence upon external trade, and none therefore more concerned to see a sound permanent solution of the problem of international commodity distribution and a reliable system of world currency which may set the wheels of industry once more in motion. '
“Our statesmen delegates, whatever be their political convictions, can be trusted to remember New Zealand’s trade interests are inseparably bound up with those of the Motherland. No scheme which is inimical to Britain’s manufacturers, farmers or shipping is calculated in the long inn to benefit any class in New Zealand. The hopes and prayers successful outcome of their labours will of every section of the community for a go with them."
