Buses Said to Harm Trees
. “I have examined these trees and think I am right in saying that the gas arid fuel from the buses is harming them. No doubt the gas producers give off carbon-monoxide which is affecting the growth, and the oil Which soaks into the ground penetrates to the roots. I maintain that the. Marine parade is the birthright of the people of Napier, and I don t think that ’ Seven New Zealand Railways’ buses parked in this spot are doing good,” said Mr. A. E. Bedford at a meeting of the Napier Borough Council, when reporting on his recent inspection of the Norfolk pine trees adjoining the colonnade. The council resolved to pursue its policy of trying to affect the lemoval of the vehicles to another parking site.
