STATE HOUSING IN PALMERSTON
TO THE EDITOII Sir,—With reference to a local in the issue of August 23, concerning State houses in Palmerston, I wish to congratulate the Housing Committee on its purchase of the sections in Ranaly street. Why are all the good houses being built in this street? Who wants to live near the Post Office and the Railway Station, where one gets all the smoke and such a smell from the drain that a person has to hold his nose if he goes out on a hot night 7 Besides there is not half the frost, The distance to the railway and Post Office is a-quarter of a mile, there is a pillar box in front of the propert-v and there are 14 houses further south on this street than the sections In which the State houses will be situated. —I am. etc., One Waiting to Rent a House. August 25.
