Stilling, representative of the Australian National Travel Association, arrived in Wellington by the Maunganui, The sending of an Australian representative to New Zealand to undertake the work of stimulating tourist traffic to Australia, bo said, was a reciprocal arrangement in which the various State Governments, the Commonwealth and New Zealand Governments were co-operating. Mr Stilling will be remembered by many New Zealanders as the manager of Jenolan Caves, New South Wales. Tn Australia, said Mr Stilling, the New eZaland Government Tourist Representative and Trades Commissioner, Mr Schmitt, was located in Sydney and his efforts were now being fully rewarded.
