New Governor

Mr. Lawrence Judd, of Honolulu, once, as Governor of American Samoa.

Mr. Ewing was appointed only last November, following resigna tion of Governor Phelps Phelps.

There are only two commodities in the New Hebrides which are likely to attract the comparatively few Australians who pass through the Hebrides on the two-monthly trips of Malaita —French wines and French perfumes. Every other commodity is too ridiculously high priced to attract anyone but the

desperate. And as French wines and perfumes are something that the average Australian can take oi leave at will, it is unlikely that the Condominium will wax fat on ex port taxes from these.

Messrs. Gilbert and Sullivan will never die while the Condominium continues in being.

These two selected police officials of Fiji, Inspector J. Suguturaga and Sub- Inspector Walli Mohammed, left Suva by TEAL service in March, en route to England, for a special police course.
