Since allowances for petrol to commercial travellers have been reduced, some Auckland firms are stationing cars in the districts usually canvassed. For example, cars are left in Hamilton, and the travellers travel by trail? between that town and Auckland. One extension of this principle has been adopted by a firm which has shipped a car to the South Island. A traveller will journey by train and steamer to a South Island port, take possession of the car, and then start his business tour, travelling northward through the South_lsland, and finally through the North Island to Auckland.
