In the course of a letter to a friend in Blenheim, a Montreal business man says.“There is plenty, of work going, but returns ate somewhat meagre, I have a sort of general idea that New Zealand is better off thah almost any country, cten though newspaper reports recently seemed to indicate that the whole country was being shaken about in a somewhat careless way. Having seen several letters published on this side from irate New Zealanders who complain that the news stories were shockingly exaggerated, I gather that a good part of the island stands pretty much as it did before. . . . Lute all countries, Canada is feeling the effects of the depression, and until we see some way of selling our wheat at a fairly good price I do not expect much improvement.”
