Brisk Traffic Between Apia and Pago Pago
From Our Own Correspondent APIA, July 22.
SINCE work started on the US Naval Base at Pago Pago (American Samoa), traffic with our neighbour ing island has increased, considerably Practically every day two or three launches leave Apia for Pago with full loads of passengers and Samoan food stuffs, or cocoa beans for trans-shipment to Matson liners.
A large number of Europeans and Samoans have obtained remunerative work in Pago as carpenters, labourers, drivers, etc. During June, more than 1,000 Samoans travelled from Western-to Eastern Samoa and more than 50 Euro peans have also found work. A party of contractors and employees from Pago visited Apia on July 4, American Inde pendence Day.
