"NO GREAT MOMENT!"
(To the Editor.)
Sir, —Tho topic of the Hill street deviation seems to bo with few exceptions ' of no great moment to citizens. Why? Attention has boon drawn by "The Post" and by some letters on the proposal, but there is not tho expressed indignation, to bo expected from a virile people, at the futile proposal. . Arc the citizens so saturated by the extraordinary expenditure of tho City Council as to render them waterlogged? The rates have just been put up, and I as a small owner have to find another £5 just when cash is scarce, whilst our city fathers build useless tramlines and burrow into hills. I suggest that, instead of building for. the Government seventeen garages in llill street, that the council hands over to the Public Works Department tlio Northland tunnel, which could at -mall expense be converted into a garage. What has become of our Civic League, and other leagues and half-leagues?—l am, etc.,
D. E. ARTHUR
