Motunau Beach
r Sir.—l among many others, make frequent visits to MotuMu Beech and enjoy this vW resort The forechore along the river to the see is a very nice picnic spot and is an excellent bathing and boattag place for .the children. But just up the river is a vile-smelling fish store or freezer which has a black effluent running out from under the door? on to the ground. The smell- from this carries at least 75 yards. Does the Health Department know of this public health nuisance? I understand there is a Motimau Beach Committee and that the area is under the Watparn County Council. Who is responsible for rectifying this? We already have dysentery in our city areas and tn taking our children on summer holidays to an "o'* <* B*®” 'are ya. fghf_ a' ftartluer health G.

action was then taken through the Health Department to have the nuisance abated immediately. If this does not prove effective, the council will have the offending freezer removed.”]
