Chunhua

THE road in Chunhua county, Shensi province was lined with poplar trees. Waiting at a bus stop beneath one of them was a woman commune member with a child of four or five. The child kept running among the young trees, occasionally shaking them. "Don't do that," the mother scolded. "Everybody takes care of the trees and you should too." In fact, most of the roads in Chunhua county are now lined with trees and most of the people do feel about them like this farm mother.

A tour bus traveling through countryside in northwest China toppled off a steep hillside in Shaanxi Province on Friday, killing at least 35 people, according to state-run news media. It appeared to be the deadliest traffic accident in nine months in China, where the government has struggled to curtail the danger on roads and highways. The bus, traveling through Chunhua County, had about 46 people on board when it went off the side of the road, according to news reports citing county officials.
