Thoughts For The Times
N.Z. Loads Condemned. It can safely he said that there is not a 'first-class load in New Zealand. True there are stretches of good road surfaces, and in this respect those in Taranaki district may be taken is an example, but in the broad sense of the word the main thoroughfares in the Dominion are far from being even fair. The reason for this is not far to seek. Under the present methods main reads are controlled by so many local bodies that while one takes a pride in keeping its particular section in good order, another, through lack of funds, or indifference, allows the" portion running through its district to become a series of miniature lakes in wet weather, and holes during the dry seasons of the year.—North Island comment.
