Ca Officer For Fiji
FIJI is to have “for 12 months only” the services of an over seas officer to improve the organisation and control of civil aviation in Fiji.
He must have administrative and flying experience.
The appointment was approved by the Fiji Legislative Council’s standing committee on finance at end of June.
Fiji has only one interior airline and it is considered that a per manent aviation official in the Gov ernment is unwarranted. t A new Catholic church was dedicated at Nassau Island, Northern Cooks, in June. Although Nassau has no permanent popula tion, the island has successive
groups of upwards of 100 people from nearby Pukapuka living there.
The island is visited by a ship only when cargo offers; it was reported by radio in mid-June that 26 tons of copra were on hand and oners were sought from Rarotonga traders.
