TAXI FARES
MINIMUM OF 1/- PER MILE ‘ SOUGHT. (Per United Press Association.) Wellington, June 15. Holding that owing to excessive competition and unfair illegitimate actions by certain taxi drivers, the men are unable to carry on their taxi business in a legitimate manner, the City Council to-night expressed itself in favour of the fixation of a minimum fare of one shilling per car mile. Recommendations were adopted from the By-laws Committee that steps be taken to this effect through the Municipal Association to ask Parliament to fix the minimum fare of one shilling.
