Norfolk Is., Oct. 1.

THE suggestion that Norfoll Island would be better off ii administered by New Zealand as nublished in September PIM, hai not been well received by resident! of the Island.

NZ may be the logical market fa our fruit, vegetables, flowers, etc: but those who have a knowledge a life in New Zealand feel that thi bureaucratic dictation that persist there, even under the Nation© Government, would soon dominate life here.

We cherish our freedom and lac: of irksome restrictions. Present conr ditions under an understands Administrator are generally ven satisfactory.

However, it is felt that two-wa£ trade between New Zealand anr Norfolk Island would benefit th residents of both countries.
