Sir H. Luke and Lord Galway in Central Pacific
SIR HARRY LUKE, Governor of Fiji and High Commissioner for the Western Pacific, after his return from the Pacific defence conference in New Zealand, will leave Suva about the middle of May, in a small British war ship, and will visit the Solomon Islands, the Gilbert and Ellice Group, and the New Hebrides. He will be away about eight weeks.
In August, soon after the Governor’s return, Fiji will receive a visit from the Governor-General of New Zealand (Lord Galway) and Lady Galway. Lord and Lady Galway are to leave New Zealand about the beginning of July, and they will visit New Zealand territories in the Pacific, including the Southern Cook Is lands, Niue and Western Samoa. This tour was arranged for the winter of 1938, but was cancelled owing to an outbreak of influenza and measles in New Zea land.
