PROBLEM OF EROSION
IT was significant that fully fifty per cent, of the business dealt with by the County Council at its meeting on Tuesday related either directly or indirectly to the problem of erosion. At Whakatane, Ruatoki, Wainui, Waimaina, Opouriao, White Pine Bush and Galatea, this question has apparently given rise to the. gravest concern. Possibly the creation of the Soil Conservation and River's Control Board has led to greater emphasis being placed on the subject than hitherto, but from all appearances it would seem that this district is in urgent need of those preventive measures which we understand will be introduced through the instrumentality of the Board on a Dominion-wide basis.
