INQUIRIES TO GOVERNMENT LIFTING OF CASTLE STREET LINE " It seems that we are being treated most discourteously, and are being ignored," said the Mayor (Mr A/ H. Allen), at the meeting of the , City Council last night, in reply to a question from Cr M. C. Henderson, chairman of the Transport Committee, whether he had received a reply to his letter inquiring when the Order in Council permitting the lifting of the Castle street tram line would bo gazetted. The Mayor said he had written to the Prime Minister fully six or eight weeks ago, asking when tho Order in Council would be passed, and he had received only a formal reply. Since then the Prime Minister had gone abroad. Then 'he had written to the Acting Prime Minister three weeks ago, and had received no reply.
