PUBLIC FEEDER SERVICES.
"In view of the present mutual de« pendence of railway and road transport, the road system can no longer be recognised as a totally independent unit," said Dr. H. Belshaw, Professor of Economics at the Auckland University College, commenting to-day upon the railway policy of the Government. He added that the extension of transport to coyer feeder services by road, which would deliver goods in cities, should be considered. The policy of co-ordinating the transport services would, no doubt, arouse strong protest from private interests which might bo affected, but the community should not be expected to pay annually he;ivy deficits on railways if such deficits could be reduced by the extension of publicly controlled feeder services.
