WELLINGTON, This Day. With the object of devising a na-. tional policy for native bush preservation, the conference called by the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Hon. W. E. Parry, and presided over by the Governor-General, opened to-day. Mr. Parry paid tribute to the interest shown by Lord and Lady Galway in Nenr Zealand bush and the beautiff-' cation of roadsides and waste spaces. Up to the present New Zealand had fought a losing battle with the probfem and a greater degree.of co-ordina-tion was needed. The time had arrived when there shonld be a national drive to educate public opinion and ensure a uniform poliey. The Gdvera* oient conld not provide all the money necessary to bring about what they all desired. What was needed in nine cases out ef ten was not the expenditure of money but the expenditure of manual eflfort. At the same time, the Government recognised that there- was a national duty in both directions. The Minister of Lands, the Hon. F; Langstone, said that many large areas of trees had been felled which should never have been touched. The conference is proeeeding.
