“It is quite certain,’’ said the Prime Minister (the lit Him W. F. Massey) to a reporter at Wellington on Saturday, when asked for his opinion of the appointment of Lord Jellieoe as Gover-nor-General of New Zealand, “both Lord and Lady Jellieoe will get on well witli the people of 'New Zealand, who have already shown them evidences- of their regard. As far as the appointment of Lord Jellieoe is concerned I consider it a compliment to New Zealand ; it is certain to be very popular. At the same time he will fittingly represent the Sovereign and the Imperial authorities. I myself am very pleased at the appointment. In addition to meeting Viscount Jellieoe during the visit to New Zealand, 1 saw much of him on very many occasions during the War Cabinet sittings in England, and I am able to appreciate, what his stay in New Zealand will mean to this country.” The time of Viscount Jellicoc’s I arrival in New Zealand is not yet known.
