Notice To Correspondent. To Cr, Kirbi. First point in dispute : Section 50 oi the Bating Aot pro* videe that " Not less than fourteen days before making any rate the local author* ity shall publicly notify ita intention to make ouch rate, etc." If, therefore, yonr contention is oorreot that a motion to increase the sanitary rate was carried at the Ooanoil meeting on 11th Julyreported in our issue next day as being a notice of motion—then it and the gen* eral rate of 2s in the & with which it was bracketed, are invalid, as, aocordingjtb you the motion was carried five days prior to the advertisement on 16th July notifying the Council's intention of levy* ing same.
