p. 109 · Read in the full issue

It is reported from a correspon dent in Vanua Levu (Fiji) that resi lents of that district now hope that, at an early date, an air-strip will be constructed near the Bua River. That will greatly help the community there in communications, and in trans porting sick and injured people quickly to Labasa and Suva.

Passengers to NZ on the March Tofua included (top to bottom, left to right): Miss Gertrude Stunzner, of Apia, who travelled to New Zealand. X-Ray Tech nician Tsimani, of Apia Hospital, who went to NZ for further study. Papall’l Ulu, of Apia, who will have a holiday in NZ. Mrs. J. Caine, of Suva, Fiji, who had been paying a short visit to Apia. -Superflash photos.
