WHAKA IMPROVEMENT

EDWARD®

Sir, — It is very pleasing to fll the columns of your attractiv nal this morning that at last « effort is to be made to h( ■ Whakarewarewa. During moiuM than I care to remember, seems to have been putting, asM the bralte upon this unique an^jj beautiful part of the world. jJH are the days when Pohutu plaffl| gularly and Maggie beamed miration as she noticed the yfl ing countenances of the de!jM| visitors. Since 1919, 1 have brought aiji more than three hundred visit^B New Zealand from the old and each year when I am pi'^9 my deseriptive initerary in VWt and write about Whaka I sense a little disappointment minds of the members of myjM when the day arrives to visit Wm This should not be and the "im must he turned into a wheel gress. M I am glad to see that that P'fl sive gentleman, Mr. BayfeiHi« head of the Tourist DepartmenjjM is moving in the right directlB hring Whaka into its own. h I hope that the GovernmenlH horough council and the MaowB afford him every support. few realise that in the comingjM Rotorua and distriet is destijH hecome one of the most attfll parts of this little world whicfrJB to be gettitog snialler and snia^B ing to the annihilation of dist»H rapid transportation. Ijl Every New Zealander shofl more alive to the world-wide H tions of this distriet — uniqu^B among the many beauty spots jjM old New Zealand. It should « lised what a lot would be supposing the disti'iet could beH ported to matiy coufitries whi® f ast waking up to the money v| tourists' business. 19
