REPORT FROM DEPARTMENT.
(By Telegraph—Special Reporter.) Wellington, Last Night.
More than 11,000 assisted immigrants came to New Zealand in 1926-27, and during 1934-35 the number fell to one. Only one immigrant was assisted, and he was a boy of 16 whose parents were already settled in New 1 ealand. According to the annual report of the Department of Immigration tabled in the House of Representatives to-day recent activities have been in the direction of the recovery of debts due on passage money loans of previous years. The report discloses that full-fare immigrants- are still trickling into the Dominion. Last year’s total of 490 was slightly in advance of that of the previous year.
