“MOST BEAUTIFUL BIT OF GLOBE”
4 Tribute to New Zealand London, January 24. Sir Fabian Ware, permanent vicechairman of the Imperial War Graves Commission, said that his recent visit had convinced him that New Zealand as a whole was the most beautiful bit of the entire globe. The difference between Australians and New Zealanders and Britons was that the former were much more hopeful. Australia and New Zealand showed less trace of that fatal war legacy of pessimism which had wizened the minds of England’s younger generation. Australians and New Zealanders displayed the greatest virility and optimism. Nevertheless, in consequence of their remoteness from Europe they were less percipient than Britops of world problems affecting their interests. They were inclined to believe anyone who went out there. Therefore, the right kind of people, able to speak authoritatively, should visit Australia and New Zealand. Nevertheless, the standard of newspapers was high and foreign news amply covered.
