• What Black and White Cabs will mean to Wellington. The City will be provided with a reliable public taxi service, providing courtesy, cleanliness, comfort, and convenience, to passengers at low rates night or : day; and should afford a profitable undertaking to investors m the share capital which will be listed on the Wellington Stock Exchange. It is an acknowledged fact that such services contribute to the general prosperity of a business centre, and assist m making it popular. Visitors to Wellington often get the impression from taxi fares charged that everything else m the town is correspondingly dear. The Black & White Cabs will completely .. dispel this impression. Shareholders will be given no special privileges m using their cabs, but they will be able to purchase taxi coupons at a satisfactoiy discount. rwHr ■' • •• - £• (a) .
