CORRESPONDENCE.
. « TO THE EDITOR. ( Sir,— l wish to draw attention to the great inconvenience caused to the 1 public at the Feilding Railway Station' . owing to the inability of the present r staff to cope with the work. As the i latter is at present situated, one clerk ' has to look after the ticket and ■ parcel's offices at the same time, ' which, being an impossibility, the ■ latter department is wholly neglected . just at the time when attention is necessary — via, the arrival of trains, i The question is a much vexed one 3 with the carriers and the public generally, and while making a com- • plaint against the neglect on the - part of the Government to remedy 1 the trouble, I do not wish to make ' the blame attachable in any way to the present members of the staff. On . the contrary, it is to their credit that they endeavour to lessen the mii convenience as much as possible. I ' am sure that the Chamber of Coin- ' merce has been moving in the matter, [ and that in answer to a deputation, I the Minister of Railways gave the , " stock " promise of " considering " i the same, but the inconvenience still exists, and I therefore enter a strong protest against the unbusiness like • way in which the Department has i wholly ignored a public request. 5 I am, etc., ! R. McFaklane.
