I N the next 10 years transport would play an important part in improving and refining the organization of Wales, Mr. F. Blaise Gillie, Welsh Secretary of the Ministry of Housing and Local Government, said in Cardiff last week at the annual dinner of the South Wales and Monmouthshire section of the Institute of Transport.

Mr. Gillie said that Wales had made tremendous strides during the past 20 years and that new industry and society had become more complex. " The problem of the next 10 years will be to improve and refine the organization of Wales so that it will be adequate to deal with these rapidly changing conditions.

"Transport is bound to bulk large in this process of adjustment, and will have to go hand in hand with extensive changes in our towns; changes that are likely to be far more rapid than in the past."

Mr. K. W. C. Grand, the president of the Institute, said that road services in this country were excellent and were being extended day by day to ensure that the general public could continue to benefit from such a wonderful service.
