"A LOSING FIGHT."
KAH.WAY3CEN AND BATES. A request was received by the Otahuhu Borough Council last night from the railway housing scheme committee for a reduction in rates. The committee said the men were doing their beet to keep up their payments, but owing to wages, "cuts" and other it was a losing fight. The Mayor, Mr. H. T. Clements, said the only thing to do was to refuse the request, as other sections of the community were just as much in need. The request was declined.
