Wellington Is
Lively Seaport
Washington, D.C. (Special)
A liveiy arena ot ocean-port com
merce in a gale-blown amphithea
ter ot mountainside homes that
Is Wellington, capital ot New Zea
land. Tne United States diplo
matic mission there, elevated from
consulate to legation in the criti
cal war days ot early 1942, will
shortly take on full-Hedged em
bassy status.
Since its consulate days, the
mission now designated as an em
bassy has been housed in a mod
ern office building of Wellington's
bay-level port section. Much of
this busy commercial area lies on
made land, notes the National
Geographic society, and high
lights the romance of Welling
ton's growth. '
Now a spreading city of 180,
000 people, Wellington compares
with Hartford, Conn., in relative
latitude as well as size. About
6,700 airline miles southwest of
San Francisco and 1,385 miles
southeast of Sydney. Australia.
It began in 1840 as a setttement
of British colonists. Thev chose
a Maori village site where the
mountains sloped down to the
lakelike waters of Port -Nicholson.
a sheltered arm of the Pacific
ocean.
Waterless Quay
Because of its central position
on Cook strait, which separates
New Zealand's north and south
islands, Wellington became the
capital in 1865, superseding Auck
land, the dominion's only larger
city. Soon after the change, ex
panding commerce created for
Wellington the dilemma of where
to grow. It could only climb steep
hillsides or push out into the bay.
It did both.
In those days, Lambton quay,
as its name implies, was a water
front street. Still the main street
for stores, shops and offices, it
holds to the curve of the natural
shore line, although now several
blocks inland from the deep-water
port.
In Its sheltered port position,
Wellington is compared to Seattle.
Its tiers of homes mounting the
hills, with cable cars serving some
sections, also suggests San Fran
cisco. For persistent windiness,
It puts Chicago to shame.
Northeast trade winds, roaring
down from the tropics, hit North
island's mountain barrier, which
funnels their flow into the land
break at Cook strait. Wellington
weaves and rolls with the full
force of the blast. The winds,
credited with giving ' bugs and
germs no chance to settle, average
24 miles an hour the year around.
War Memorial In Hills
Recognizing their position in
the Pacific earthquake 1elt, Wel
lington's planners built of frame
in the early days. Through recent
decades, however, they have erect
ed many large and beautiful stone
buildings, incorporating 'quake
proof features that provide
against heavy loss of life. Out
standing are the white marble
parliament buildings.
Combined overseas and coastal
trade now place Wellington nip
and tuck with Auckland in volume
of export-import commerce. Both
cities provided important facili
ties to the United States navy in
its world war II campaign in the
central and northern Solomon is
lands. With the Japanese threatening
ly near, in the war's early phases,
Wellington fortified a high peak
within the city reaches, equippine
It with long-range guns. In the
cemetery for war dead on a hill
behind the city, an Oregon pine
marks a "spot of the United
States in New Zealand" where
sailors and marines lie buried.
New Zealanders have pledged its
eternal care.
Stephen Foster Obliges
With Song in Jail
Tacoma, Wash. iui There was
singing in the city jail.
Police arrested a man on
drunkeness charge after he had
been found tearing up Canadian
money and stuffing it down a
drain. "Just paper," he insisted.
When he was put in a cell he
began lo sing in a loud voice. He
said nis name was Stephen ros
tcr. It turned out it was, but he
was no relation to the composer.

Early Mailing
Request Is Made
Acting Postmaster Farley J. El
liott, today appealed to local resi
dents to plan to mail all Christ
mas greeting cards and gift pack
ages "just as early in December
as possible."
An even heavier flood of Yule
tide mall Is expected this Christ
mas than during the record-breaking
1947 holiday season, when the
local post office cancelled 343,990
pieces of mail in the month of De
cember. "If you postpone mailing to the
last minute this year," the post
master warned, "you risk disap
pointing your friends. Your holi
day messages and gifts may be
caught in the rush and perhaps
not delivered until after Christ
mas." All packages should be mailed
before December 10 to assure de
livery before Christmas day, he
said. Christmas cards for out-of-state
delivery also should be mail
ed by December 10 and cards for
local addresses should be in the
collection Doxes at icasi a wecK i
Early Christmas mailing is ex
tremely vital, the postmaster said,
because handling the Christmas
mall load is divided Into three
phases. First, the mail for out-of-town
must be collected and dis
patched by rail and air. Then, de
livery of Yuletide greetings being
exchanged locally becomes the big
Job. Finally, there is the last-minute
flood of.cards and packages
from out-of-town to be handled.
"Whenever these three opera
tions overlap, there's a jam in the
post office and deliveries are de
layed," the postmaster declared.
