Amazement at the change that had occurred in the appearance of Auckland since he last visited the city 30 years ago was expressed by Mr J. Waschke, of Durban, who arrived from the East by the Maetsuycker recently. Mr Waschke said he had spent 18 months in New Zealand nearly 40 years ago and had known Auckland when it had a population of approximately 80.000. The progress which the city had made was remarkable, he said, and he was greatly impressed with the beauty of the harbour.
