ELECTORAL WHANGAREI BOROUGH ELECTORS WHANGAREI HOSPITAL BOARD T AM a candidate for a seat on the above Board and. if elected, will carry out the duties to the best of my ability. HAROLD F. MENZIES, Late Chemist and Bookseller, Whangarei. 99 WHANGAREI BOROUGH COUNCIL TO THE ELECTORS Ladies and Gentlemen — I have decided to offer my services as a Borough Councillor. If you honour me by election I will serve your interests to the best of my ability. The PROGRESS of WHANGAREI, my native town, will be my first and only consideration. It is not my intention to make rash promises. Manpower problems are still with us, but my slogan is MAKE A CHART IN READINESS TO START a great post-war advancement. w. les McKinnon, 800 Whangarei. WHANGAREI EOROUGH COUNCIL TO THE ELECTORS T AM offering myself for re-election to the Council, believing that I will be able to render some further service to my fellow citizens. Having retired from active business, I can devote whatever time is necessary to borough mattei’s. Under war conditions I feel it is futile to promise any programme of development. I stand for steady and continued progress for Whangarei and Northland. If elected. I will endeavour to conduct borough affairs on sound business lines, giving best value from the revenue provided to all sections of the community. 98 H. W. JAMES. VOTE for . . . PROGRESS. DRIVE and INITIATIVE in Harbour Board affairsVOTE for CROSBY fol ' the Harbour Board. 122 TO THE ELECTORS HikurangiKamo for North Auckland Electric Power Board and Whangarei Hospital Board and Kamo Town District for Kamo Town Board. Ladies and Gentlemen— I am a candidate for the three boards. My policy is Progress, Effi'ciency. Economy and Sound Administration, also the abolition of the minimum charge on householders for electric power. In view of the serious shortage of electric power, the abolition of this minimum charge, substituted by a “Pay for what you use” policy would tend to reduce considerably the consumption of electricity by small consumers and ease the position as far as the shortage of electric power is concerned. Yours faithfully, 972 J. MAKINSON. WHANGAREI BOROUGH COUNCIL ELECTION TO THE ELECTORS Ladies and Gentlemen — As a ratepayer, with youth and energy. I solicit your support in my candidate as a Councillor. My 23 years’ experience in the building industry is at your disposal. I am—(1) A member of the Whangarei Rehabilitation Committee (since inception.) (2) President of the Whangarei branch of the N.Z. Carpenters’ and Joiners’ Union. (3) An executive member of the Whangarei Trades and Labour Council. If returned I will advocate a policy of progress by prudent finance. Yours sincerely, 102 C. J. HOMER. NORTH AUCKLAND ELECTRIC POWER BOARD TO THE ELECTORS OF WHANGAREI COUNTY Ladies and Gentlemen— I am again a candidate for the seat I have occupied on the above Board as your representative during the past three years.

My objective has always been, and still is, to give the benefits of electric power to every family in the area at the lowest possible cost, consistent with sound finance, and after making provision from profits for the reticulation of areas that could not legally be reticulated by the use of loan moneys. I am in favour of only electric power actually used being paid for, as I consider the very strong financial position of our undertaking does not need bolstering up by minimum charges or in any other way. ALEXANDER ANGUS (Alan) MacKAY. 859 WHANGAREI .HARBOUR BOARD ELECTION OF BOROUGH REPRESENTATIVE Ladies and Gentlemen— I have consented to nomination as a candidate for a further term as one of the Eorough representatives on the Whangarei Harbour Board, and trust that my record, extending 'over a period of 15 years (five as chairman) justifies my soliciting your support at the forthcoming election. If re-elected I shall, as in the past, support every progressive movement, consistent with the requirements ot shipping and the demands of the times. I have, as a business man, loyally supported the shipping service one hundred per cent., and thus' contribute substantially to the Board’s revenue. I have unbounding faith in the future of the port and believe that, with the co-operation of neighbouring local bodies, Whangarei will become the main distributing centre for the whole of Northland. If re-elected I will exert every effort to further the interests of the port, the borough and its people. 105 EDW. L. WHIMP.
