Talking About Tourists
HE first 3YA Question Mark, "Is There a New Concept in the Pacific?" was not entirely successful owing to difficulties in transmission, It is possible that the experts, more interested in the subject matter, got something from the session, but there was a distracting surge which came between what the British speakers had to say and the listener. The second panel on "How Can We Develop Our Tourist Trade?" fared a good deal better. All the speakers were well informed on their topic, and there was no flagging in the exchange of ideas. From the building of two model Maori villages at Rotorua to the construction of Youth Hostels throughout the country there was no lack of practical suggestions. Of course, the tourist gets to know the country better than we do _ ourselves, but it occurred to me that tourist trade is valuable not only because of the money it brings into the country, but also because it breaks down narrow national
prejudices,
