TOURIST ROADS
MR DOWN IE STEWART’S PLEA. . DUNEDIN, August 2. Speaking at a meeting of the Otago Expansion League, the Hon. W. Dowuie Stewart, M.P., said be thought that the present was a good time for the league to press for expenditure on tourist roads and on whatever was necessary to encourage tourists to come to New Zealand because the best time for a Government to stimulate recovery was when recovery was already on the road.
! Reasons which should be taken into consideration in this respect .were' the importance of tourist traffic, the fact that there was a large-amount of idle money which private enterprise could not profitably use. and the presence of many unemployed who would be bettor engaged on this -class of work than bn 'ordinary unemployed work.
