GERMAN ATHLETE IN N.Z.
DR. OTTO PELTZER ARRIVES AUSTRALIAN ECONOMICS Press Association WELLINGTON, Today. Dr. Otto Peltzer, the German athlete arrived today. He says athletics are* only a recreation with him. In Germany he is a lecturer in economics, and when not on the running track iii the countries he is visiting he is engaged in analysing social conditions. He does not see much hope in Australia’s high tariff policy. They would, he said, have to learn they were not the world in themselves. There should be a periodical survey of the protected industries. The progress of industry and the general air of prosperity in Japan surprised him. The future seemed very bright. He considers free trade the only way the world can be made happy all round. His own country was labouring under extremely heavy taxation in which all had to share. Other athletes who arrived today were Lermond, of America, Golding of New South Wales, and Emton, of Germany. Dr. Peltzer will probably go on to Rotorua this evening and will he back in Wellington for Saturday’s meeting, after which he and Emton return to Germany via Australia, Java and India. Lermond and Golding will tour the Dominion, competing at meetings in various places.
