Mr W. T. Anderton (Opposition) Auckland Central: A cycle-track 1« more than the Auckland Harbour Bridge has got. The Prime Minister: Then all I can say is, "Come South, young man —and bring your cycle with you.”— Report of debate on the Christ-church-Lyttelton Road Tunnel Bill. Go South, young Man, and take your Cycle with you! Across the Strait is where you l Fortune lies. . Pedal your Way into the Land oi Plenty. Sid Holland’s Ground, the Land of Enterprise. Go South, young Man! There’s Power in them there Rivers. There’s Room to breathe, if That is all you need. The Tunnel’s long, the Plains ar* broad, the Bicycle Will get you round, with Safety u not Speed. Go South, young Man, don’t hesitate a Moment. Go somehow, even if you have Wswim. Cycle and All—Sid recommends it strongly. And who are You to disagree wiu*. HIM? s ’ What’s Wellington but young Ambition’s Sludge-trap? A transit Camp, a bureaucratic Slum! It’s far too steep for you to ride your Bicycle. Go South, young Man, you can’t he all THAT dumb! What’s Auckland but a New Kororareka, An overcrowded Beach, a Cui de Sac: No kind of Place for you to take your Bicycle: Its boasted Bridge has got no Cycletrack. Reverse the population Trend! The Spaces Are calling, where the bracing Air is pure. Go South, young Man—and if have no Bicycle, Sid will be glad to lend you his, I’m sure!
