MUCH TRAVELLED U.S. VISITOR COMING TO NEW ZEALAND

An interesting overseas visitor to arrive in New Zealand in the spring will be Mrs. H. G. Fowler, chairman of the eastern unit of the American Women’s Pan-Pacific Association. A delegate to the U.N.E.S.C.O. conference in Florence this month, Mrs. Fowler is to also be a delegate to the conference of non-governmental organisations in Geneva in June. She and her husband are addressing various groups in Europe for the United Nations Department of Information and for the World Federation of United Nations. Mr. and Mrs. Fowler will reach the Dominion in August or September, when they will be making a lecture tour of the country. Mrs. Fowler has said she looks forward to meeting again the New Zealand delegates whcnr. she knew at the Honolulu PanPacific women’s conference. In a letter to the New Zealand association secretary, Miss Mary McLean, she spoke of Pan-Pacific meetings in her own area. "Dances of the Pacific Nations” was a programme sponsored in Carnegie Hall and study groups were already in action. Recently there was an address from Dr. Shushila Mayar, personal physician to Mr. Ghandi. The rise of nationalism in the Pacific was a coming topic for discussion when Dr. Phillip Jessup and Madam Pandit were to speak.
