A HINT that one of the Matson Line ships may come back into the Syd ney-San Francisco trade was given in San Francisco on November 21 by the US Maritime Commission’s chairman.
He said that the Matson Line had in dicated that it would complete the re conversion of the “Mariposa” if the Mari time Commission bought the sister ship “Monterey.” If anything came of this, “Mariposa” would probably run between the US Pacific coast and Hawaii during the tourist season, and to Australia and New Zealand for the rest of the year.
The Rev. Harold Short, well-known LMS missionary in Papua, spent a few weeks in Australia recently and has now returned to the Territory.
