TO THE EDITOR. 8 - \llm’ me space in xnur regarding the dredging of yr Harbour. As a stratoger te T lutve heard a lot of talk < Harbour and the Breakwa Now. sir, 1 have come tot that the way you in Hawk money on dredging that t as j<»n call it. yon are «p ■ . on a thing that' will not suits. I maintain that ; ing at the wrong end o scheme. It will stand • wiuu tlte Whakarire hi she has gone home —witl n ill see for yonrselves tit has dug out will fie filled river silt, but- the oeetit Tliere is a question before the boulder bank.

Just One thought before I close, and that is thia - ti e qnukcr yon go in for reclaiming all those lagoons and getting sand pumps and suction dredges tp do good woi-k the better. It would be moneywell spent- The people of your town and country would then see the money spent on the right tiling. But beware and get on with tlte boulder bank before you spend any more money out in the bay. That £5OO a week spent on i-ecla iniing your lagoons xvould be a great liomi to your town. Hoping I have not taken up too much of your valuable space. I am. etc., STR AN (.'ICR.
