Australia and New Zealand, he said, are being consulted about a pro ject for a through air-service, via Fiji, to the United States and Canada. Shuttle services linking Suva with the Gilbert and Ellice Groups, the Solomons, and the New Hebrides, are also under considera tion.
Mr. Grantham said also that the return to normal life and the work of recon struction throughout the Western Pacific areas under his administration was quite satisfactory so far as military activities permitted.
