WAR TIME WORKS
BEARING ON DEVELOPMENT IN DAYS TO COME AIR BASES IN NEW ZEALAND. WILL SERVE FUTURE CIVIL TRANSPORT. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.48 a.m.) RUGBY, July 21. How war time industry and construction were preparing the Empire for a great future development was the t theme of a speech at a Building Congress in London by the Dominions Secretary (Mr Attlee) who said that while most of the works were primarily for military ends, they might profoundly influence and accelerate peace time development. Mr Attlee instanced air bases built in New Zealand, which would be of the greatest use for civil transport. As air lines were established across the Pacific, New Zealand would occupy an increasingly important place as a main station on a great traffic route.
