Anzac Naval Co-operation
AUCKLAND, April 12. The Chief of the New Zealand Naval Staff (Commodore G. W. G. Simpson) returned by air to-dav from Australia, where lie was the the Governor of Victoria (MajorGeneral Sir William Duggan). He said his visit had been prompted by common sense reasons. Admiral Sir Louis Hamilton in New Zealand last year had suggested he (Commodore Simpson) should return the visit to meet persons with whom lie would be in communication. He Lad had long discussions about matters of mutual interest with the new Australian Naval Chief (Rear-Admiral J. A. Collins). Two of the chief topics were the-extent to which New Zealand ratings could be trained in specialised work in Australia, and whether in an emergency, either country would have equipment at the other’s disposal.
