PRESERVATION OF BUSH
NEW ZEALAND DESIRE
APPEALS TO MINISTER
KEEN INTEREST EVINCED
(Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day
The Minister of Internal Affairs, the Hon. W. E. Parry, said to-day that he had been told it would be difficult _to move New Zcalanders into enthusiasm on question like saving native busli and that they were too commercially minded to be interested in trees.
"I have proved that statement to be a libel on the people of this country/' said Mr. Parry. "In almost every mail that reaches my desk in Parliament House there is a letter, sometimes there are two or three, from citizens, some of them on the land, bemoaning the threatened fate of belts of native trees and [ems in their particular districts. "These comunications come from all parts of the Dominion, some'from the far north and some from the far south."
