NEW ZEALANDERS IN PALESTINE. WE CHARGED. A Palmerston trooper, writing from the Cairo Hospital, on January 21st to friends osays: “I hear us New Zealanders have got a great clap on the back for the last fight of ours on the 23rd and the Bth. On the Bth the Now Zealanders saved the day. Things were in a very nasty way, but we saved the situation just at the last. The order came down the line to retire, but we couldn’t or we should been cut to pieces and I don’t think a single man would have got out alive; but instead of retiring we charged. It was the only thing to do and we saved hundreds of lives. The Australians started to go back, but when they saw us charging they came back with us and we captured the position, 8000 prisoners and eleven big guns altogether. Our. G.O.C.j Colonel Meldrum, from Huntcrville, gets the D. 5.0.”

HUNS AND SOUTH AMERICA. German commercial interests are notoriously grieved over the constantly growing wave of anti - Germanism throughout South America. They had earmarked the Latin Republics and China as the markets where, after the war, Hun trade would make up for its forfeited position in European countries. Herr von Sanden, late German Minister to Bolivia, is trying to cheer up Hamburg. At a meeting of the local Chamber of Commerce he asked the Hanseatic shippers and exporters to be of good heart. "Deutschtum’ ’ (Germanism) would triumph in the long run owing to its inherent strength. Everything justifed the certain expectation that “ after victorious ending of the struggle” everything would be done to restore German trade in foreign territory, especially South America, soon again to its former eminence .Herr von Sanden is certainly a king of optimists
