TRADE EXTENSION
NEW ZEALAND EXPORTS. JAPANESE SHIPPING LINE. [ Per Press Association. ] AUCKLAND, July 10. Possibilities of the development of the export trade of the Dominion are foreshadowed by the announcement that the Osaka Shosen KaLha shipping lino of Japan is seriously contemplating the establishment of a regular service between Melbourne and New Zealand, as an extension of the existing service between Japan and eastern Australian ports.
A statement to this effect is contained in a letter received by Dr. Neaie, secretary of the Auckland Chamber of Commerce, from Mr L. J. Schmitt, New Zealand Government representative in Sydney. In his letter, Mr Schmitt said that the proposed service would be from Melbourne to the chief New Zealand ports. Auckland would .be the final port of call and steamers would leave Auckland for Sydney. Although this was not exactly what was desired by Auckland merchants, it would create a certain and regular service which might tend toward an improvement of other services.
