MR HANNA’S OPINIONS.
NEW ZEALAND SYSTEMS.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright Sydney, May 6. Mr Hanna, principal engineer of the Roads and Bridges Department, who recently visited New Zealand, in his report on the system of co-operativo works, states that in his opinion the New Zealand system docs not hold out sufficient inducement to warrant its adoption in New South Wales.
Regarding farm settlements, Mr Hanna says, though they are not an unqualified success, they have been the means of opening up iarge areas of land, hastening the development of the country, and providing homes for a considerable number of families. He holds that it is an open question whether our unemployed as a class would be suitable for a life on the soil. On the whole the report is adverse to the possibility of tho Bystem being successfully applied here.
