“MORE FLIES THAN EVER”: OPINION OF COUNCILLOR
“ALTHOUGH an anfi-lly campaign was instituted by the Health Department, in Gisborne a short time ago, I think we have never seen more flies in the borough during the past 20 years than there are at present,” said Mr. F. Tolerton at last night’s meeting of Hie Gisborne Borough Council.
He was proposing a motion that the council's sanitary inspector should be granted leave to attend the annual conference of the Royal Sanitary Institute, to be held in Palmerston North on April 5, G and 7, 1949. “I hope something will be evolved from the conference that will be helpful to the borough,” concluded Mr. Tolerton.
, Mr. H. F. Wise: We have never had so many compost heaps. I In seconding the motion, which was 'carried, Mr. G. D. Muirhead said that ; the council should expect some report I from the inspector on his return from
I the conference. Although the report 1 would perhaps not be applicable immediately, it should be on record, he considered.
