question, but they readily fell in with
the idea that It should be a sugges-
ton by the states 10 the Common
wealth that It should be taken in
hand right away.
Along other lines Australia was
also looking to America, continued
Hunter. and It was anticipated that
the two countries would be brought
into closer touch as time went on.
Hunter expects to visit Colorado If
he goes to the States, for it is from
this state that he hopes to get the
men who are wanted.
During his stay in Honolulu Hunter
will renew his acquaintance with the
points of interest and so familiarize
himself with them all as to be able
to give other Australians the benefit
Of his knowledge. On the trip up on
the Zealandia Hunter interested more
than half the saloon passengers in
| Honolulu, so much so that the bulk
of them left the ship at this port to
see the wonderful islands Hunter SO

so arrange matters that every tourist
who crosses the Pacific will not only
call at Honolulu but will also call
at the leading ports of Australia. To
do this he realises that cooperation
is essential all along the line.
ut is too late for us TO expect to
be able to influence the tourist after
he has reached Yokohama, Shanghai,
Hongkong or Singapore" he remarked.
ITO get the tourists to include Aus
tralia in their itinerary we must get
to work at the starting point, or as
near there as possible. Blu its gen.
prlphical position Honolulu is the
one place where it would be possible
for the tourist to change his plans
and go to the north or south Pacific
as he chooses. My idea would be to
get those who are touring the Pacific
to go first to Honolulu, thence to-
Australia, returning via China and
Japan to Honolulu, or vice versa. Thus
a complete tour of the Pacific could
be made, but such plan could only
be made effective if the cooperation
of all the places mentioned were
secured We will have agents in the
States, and elsewhere if it is neces-
sary Australia has the attractions
to offer and we are advertising them.
