TUE FRISCO SERVICE.
N.w Z.aiand Parliament Wants
Better Time to Sydney


AUCKLAND, Sept. lin the House
Mr.. Seldom read draft advertisement
inviting tenders for the mail service
between New Zealand and Australia,
and Lyttelton to Sydney, via Yelling
ton. The contract Is to commence on
October II, and extend over two years.
The service between New Zealand and
Sydney Is not to exceed four days six
hours, and steamers must be not less
than 1000 tons. The Premier said
the present mail arrangements were
not satisfactory, and an alteration In
the Frisco mail arrangements was no,
likely to be made within two years
For geographical and other reasons
Auckland was essentially the first port
of call for the Frisco service, and hi
believed any Government in power
would support it. The proposed ser
vice via Lyttelton, Wellington ant
Sydney would not clash with the 'Fris
co service, but would put on definite
basis New Zealand's mail communica
ton. In reply to a question the Pre-
mier said he was willing to limit the
New Zealand and Australian service
to four days. though it meant an in.
crease in cost, but better class Of
boats and fortnightly service would
mean cutting out the Frisco service
BY no side wind would he be the
means of injuring this service. 1t was
agreed to refer the question to com
mittee of the whole House, and leave
was given to sit again.
