TRANSPORT PROBLEMS.
NEW MINISTER'S VIEWS.
MUTUAL CO-OPERATION WANTED,
(By Telogrnph.—Own Correspondent.)
WELLINGTON, this day,
"I welcome the new responsibility-," stated the Hon. W. A. Veitch, the new Minister of Transport, to your correspondent. "I can see in the new office an opportunity of rendering very useful service to the people, a3 it is obvious that the vast development of motor transport within the last few years has created a new factor in our national life. Every phase of motoring requires attention from the viewpoint of public interest, including, of course, that of the immense number of the public who are motorists themselves. I have always been keenly interested in the problem, and I hope, in helping to guide the future of motor transport, to be of use to the community. No doubt from time to time it may be my duty to reconcile conflicting interests, and in this I shall need the co-operation of those concerned. I hope to see mutual consideration and a common-sense outlook taken to secure a satisfactory solution for the problems involved."
