BUS ROUTE EXTENDED.

For the past six months the southern portion of the Papatoetoe district has not been served by passenger buses, and the question of establishing a service between the corner of Puhinui Road and Great South Road, Papatoetoe, and the citv, was considered by the No. 1 Licensing Authority to-day. The Passenger Transport Company was granted a license to make the extension, a rival application by Mr. C. J. Mahon being declined. Mr. Northeroft, who appeared for Mr. Mahon. said that there was a demand from many residents for a service to Puhinui Road. It was proposed to ran through Mangere. A petition, signed bv 400 Mangere residents, bad been submitted to the Manukau County Council in support of the application.
