BATHING SHEDS AND BATHS
(To the Editor.) Sir, —The allocation of funds available from the Thorndon! Esplanade compensation money is a most extraordinary one. To place expensive baths in the distant suburbs and leave no money for the city baths and Oriental Bay is beyond comprehension. It would be just on a par with this arrangement if the libraries committee decided to erect the new central library at Miramar. To meet the ever-increasing demands of citizens and visitors to our city improved facilities are urgently required at Thorndon and Te Aro Baths, and most urgently required at Oriental Bay. Yet there is no money available for this work. Surely swimming pools on the lines of the one at Wellington College would meet all the requirements of Ngaio and Karpri. So why spend thousands? —I am, etc., SWIMMER.
