LIST OF EMPTY HOUSES
ACTION BY R.S.A. BRANCH (P.A.) NEW PLYMOUTH, Sept. 20. The executive of the New Plymouth Returned Services’ Association is obtaining a list of empty houses in the town and will have them photographed, and the photographs tagged with the owners’ names and addresses so that R.S.A. members can obtain the owners or trustees’ name and adtoesses. The president (Mr Murdoch Fraser) at a meeting of the association last evening, after expressing the opinion that it was the association s duty to see that the best use was made of the materials and houses available, said: “This is not meant as a threat, naturally, but the executive feels that if owners could hear, at first h an a> the stories we have heard of hardship, they would not permit the houses remain empty.”
