In The Pacific

Matson Lines Expand

As a further expansion of their activities in the South Pacific, the Matson Lines in September opened their own offices in Auckland.

Earlier this year they opened offices in Melbourne, and enlarged their staff in Sydney.

The new Auckland offices will handle passengers and freight for the two liners and four freighters on Matson’s Pacific service, and also take reservations for Matson’s four Honolulu hotels.

“The move has been prompted by the company’s confidence in the future of Pacific traffic,” said area vice-president T. E. Rowe, in Auck land.
