RAILWAY POLICY.
MINISTER CONGRATULATED
{BY TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION.) CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 29.
The Canterbury Chamber of Commerce at a meeting to-night congratulated the Minister of Railways on the policy outlined in his statement, expressing gratification at the recognition of the necessity for elasticity in the regulations and determination to seek business. The general manager’s statement regarding past and future losses on the Otira line came in for criticism, the president (Mr Paterson) stating that the manager made, no suggestions for reducing the losses, though the chamber had been endeavouring for years to convince the department that this could be effected.
