ROAD TO HIKUAI
(To the Editor.) Sir, —So your correspondent, Mr Wilson, calls the movement on foot to open up the Kauaeranga (at long, long last) a tragedy. Does he not consider it a tragedy that after these many years of the idleness of the Hikuai-Neavesville-Puriri road, he, with others, are now just waking up to its possibilities. Has he not also had the opportunity to advance the prospects of the route as have the movers of the present scheme through the Kauaeranga and with the same backing? If not, why not? He has not’lived in the backblocks of “the other side of the hill” waiting for an outlet to their nearest hospital and town, to which they pay their rates.—l am, etc., EX OLD SETTLER.
