TRAM GULLY ROAD
Sir, —In reply to Mr. Aspin the reported statement of Councillor Garland is as follows: —"In his opinion it would have been better if the alternative routes had not been suggested as it might be some years now before there would bo an all-weather road to Graham's Beach, whereas the shelling of Train Gully Koad might have been started this summer and have been completed before the controversy as to the routes was settled." If above does not mean that it may take years to settle the routes over which the controversy has arise?.!, then what does it mean? It would take years to prepare, bridge and metal Tram Gully, which involves thousands of pounds, and with only a little over £2OO in sight. If Mr. Aspin would take the trouble to tally up the distance travelled by the two lorries on tho mornings when all cream goes out and then tally up the distance it:, would be by the proposed "one main road" he would find there would be considerable mileage saved and, therelore, time. M. TonrEY.
