RAILWAY BOOKSTALLS
STATE TO KEEP OUT According to an announcement by the Minister of Railways (Hon. W. B. Taverner), there is no intention on the part of the Railway Department to alter the existing arrangements in regard to the leasing of railway bookstalls. The Minister stated that when the bookstall leases expired tenders for their renewal would be invited, as usual. The proposal not to call for further tenders would have meant that the department was entering into a line of business, a practice which was contrary to the general policy of the Government.
