APIA, July 5.
APART from the announced resignation of the Administrator (Sir Herbert Hart) quite a number of Administration officials will leave for New Zealand dur ing the next few months, having resigned their positions in Samoa. Amongst them are Commissioner Norrie, Dr. Mitford, Messrs. Williams (P.W.D.) and Boyd (Customs). The resignation of the general manager of the New Zealand Reparation Estates is also reported.
A large number of candidates have been mentioned in connection with the position as Administrator of Western Samoa. As the decision rests in the hands of the N.Z. Prime Minister (Mr, Forbes) the reports seem to be more or less idle speculations.
