JJASTINGS BOROUGH ELECTION. LADIES & GENTLEMEN,— In response to repeated requests, 1 have decided to be a candidate lor the vacancy in tne Council. 1 do not tell you (if elected) that 1 will make a good Councillor, and as most of you know F have no Municipal service record, and to my own idea all 1 have to offer you is a lengthy business experience, and a real love for the place 1 have spent the past 34 years of my life, and a sincere wish to assist in anything that will add to its pro gress. If these sentiments appeal to you, and you honestly think 1 might give Hastings better service than any of the other candidates—“then and only then”—vote for me. Sincerely yours, M. J. JOHNSON.

Hastings, April 28, 1924. J ADIES & GENTLEMEN,— At request of a number of Electors I will again offer my services at the forthcoming By-election, and in seeking your support, will briefly outline my policy in contesting’ this vacant seat. , I do so strictly independent and unfettered, and pledged to support ah progressive movements to advancement of our town, and opposed to lavish expenditure on useless works. I will advocate the administration of our Borough on sound business lines. I favour a good reading and footpath scheme, and will advocate for the permanent construction of our roads. I favour the bustling up of the Hastings Hospital; Better lighting of all our streets; Extension of the Borough Housing Scheme (Workers’ Section) which will enable Council employees and workers to get a modern dwelling at a nominal rental; The opening through of all blind roads; Improvement in our sanitation methods; Establishment of a motor service to serve residents living at a distance. * 1 consider an immediate settlement should be reached between Council ami butchers over abattoirs question, without having recourse to Supreme Court, where costs will be extremely heavy, with nothing to be gained by borough. Lastly, I will support anything brought forward which will enhance progress of Hastings, giving equal consideration to east, west, north and south, on their respective merits, and

without preference to any one district, but pledged to advance all sections as opportunity occurs, and which will tend to make Hastings an ideal and model town. I trust all electors will exercise their vote on Wednesday, and vote for a progressive candidate, whose interests are all centred in this town. Yours faithfully, E. M. LANGLEY. BROWN SPANISH ONIONS.
