OURSELVES AS OTHERS SEE US!
WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT IT? “Let us glance for a moment at the position of Westland—neglected, backward, isolated Westland, the Cinderella of the provinces of New Zealand.” “The League maintains that Westland is absurdly and cruelly handicapped through isolation while it posesses enormous latent wealth which the whole Dominion might share. (And the League insists that in the best interests of New Zealand as a whole the policy of tinkering with a great national undertaking (the completion of the Otira Tunnel) ought to be immediately abandoned in favor of a- policy of enterprise, progress efficiency' and true national economy’.”— From leaflet, issued by Canterbury’ Progress League.
