"NOT FOR SALE."
~ .* GOVERNMENT HOUSES. QUESTION AT MEETING. "Why is no provision made for tenants of Govetnment houses to purchase them outright if they wish to do so?" asked a lady questioner at a meeting addressed by Mr. J. W. Munro, M.P. for Dunedin Norh, this week. "Because they were built to be let," was the candidate's short reply. This did not satisfy the questioner and Mr. Munro added that people who wished to own their own homes could obtain finance through tho Stato Advances Corporation. "Anyway," he concluded, after further questions, "we aro not going to build houses to sell."
