THE TAUPO ROAD.
It will be remembered that when the lion. r the Minister for Public Works, (Mr r Hall) was in Cambridge, application was made to him for a sum of money to be spent on the Waikato-Taupo road. After some consultation with the member for the district, Mr Hall promised £300 towards the work with a view to improving some of the worst places. Since his returd to Wellington the minister has written to Mr J. JB. Whyte, M.H.R., stating that while in the interior he made enquiries, and as the result of these lie had determined to increase the grant to £500, which amount will be spent under the supervision of the Government engineer.
