THE RAILWAY CUT.
SOUTHLAND MAIL SERVICE. By Telegraph—Press Association. INVERCARGILL, July 3. The curtailment of railway services which comes into effect on July 13, was discussed by the executive of the Invercargill Chamber of Commerce today, and the following resolutions were carried: — ‘‘While commending the action of the Government in cutting down unnecessary railway services, this Chamber strongly appeals for a daily mail service between Invercargill and the North Island, which is essential for the interests of Invercargill and Southland The proposed service also seriously delays the arrival and departure of English, Australian and other overseas mails. “If the branch line reductions affect the farming and other interests of Southland, the Chamber should cooperate, with the Southland League and Farmers’ Union, to bring the matter before the authorities for consideration.”
