According to The Times, Mr. Ransom, the acting Ministen of Transport for New Zealand, has issued draft proposals for a goods-transport licensing system, to be commenced in December. It may be recalled that, since March last, passenger services have been operating under licence, and whilst a statutory authority exists also for the control of goods services, the Government deferred the issue of regulations pending an inquiry.
The publication of the -Salter Conference Report on road and rail traffic in this country, and a strong recommendation of the National Expenditure Commission, has now brought about a decision on the past of the Government to exercise control. Before the regulations are issued in their final form, road-transport interests will have an opportunity for criticizing the draft proposals.
Preventing Fog "Dazzle."
We have received from Celtis, Ltd., Brook Works, North Circular Road, Palmers Green, London, N.13, a sample of a non-inflammable solution known as Tisit MortiLig. This can be either brushed or smeared with a cloth on the outside of the glasses of the headlamps: This results in an amber tint which prevents the refraction occurring when a strong white light is used in fog.The tint can be deepened by a second application, and the coating is easily removed when required by using a cloth moistened With petrol.
