REDUCED RAILWAY SERVICE
“SOUTHLAND UNDULY PENALISED.” By Telegraph.—Press Association. Invercargill, Last Night. The following telegram protesting against the railway reductions was forwarded to the Prime Minister to-day by the Southland League:—“While it is recognised that in the interests of general economy some curtailment should be made in the railway ...services, this league considers Southland is being unduly penalised in the proposal to make no through daily connection with the North Island. “It is also felt that the proposed reduction of some Southland branch lines is prejudicial to farming interests and in certain cases is likely to impose hardship. We respectfully ask your favourable consideration of these two aspects of the matter.”
