The first regular connection between New Zealand and Germany and the Continent since before the war will be inaugurated next month when the Hamburg-Amerika steamer Naumburg reaches Auckland to load for Hamburg and other Continental ports. The Naumburg will be the first ship in the direct cargo service to Germany conducted jointly by the HamburgAmerika and North German Lloyd Lines, details of which were announced in August. Now at Dunedin completing discharge of cargo from Texas, the Naumburg will leave on Wednesday for Port Pirie, South Australia.
