In site of the low prices for wool and frozen meat, gratifying progress is being made toward a normal tradingposition. In this respect the statistics are confirmed by the recent reduction in the rate for telegraphic remittances to London. The Dominion has still heavy arrears to overtake, but with a continuance of caution in importing, and sustained efforts to satisrj the world's demand for the cuvjitry's principal products, the outioOK justifies renewed confidence. —Auckland "Herald."
There appears to be ample scope for an educational campaign relative to loading policy, and there can bo no question that arterial roads, which must be the starting point of that policy, should be administered by the Government.

It is a problem that should not be confused with the question of arterial roads, though it needs an early and satisfactory solution. —Taranaki "News."
