ri"r) the Editor; sii4)—l read m TiiQpdajr.night's Guardian . that ( Mr D:. Friedlander asked permission from the Council to ijistal i a septic tank on his premises m. Tancred street. Now, a .councillor showing weakness and favouritism tried to point out that a snlali tank would work successfully, and would not be as detrimental as a large tank... Utter nonsense.! Would that»councillor kindly explain how lie''arrives at this ridiculous idoa ? For .., instance, if a small tank would work successfully, why ihot a large one ?.. And, jfyboth, why refuse previous applications ?'.'': { <As,other:applications have been ;refused point-blank, I hope that iho Council or.-ISanitary . Committee, ■jvill show a stiff .back, and pUce Mr. Friedlander on the same footing as'others have been placed. This application should receive very serious consideration, especially as it is next door to a. private hospital; and, secondly, the health of the Ashburton community should be considered of far more importance than the convenience of Mr Friedlandeiv ' ■ ■■■■*■ ■•• FAIRNESS;
