DILAPIDATED BUILDINGS.
[To the Editor], Sir, —I noticed in yesterday’s issue of the “Herald-Tribune” that the Hastings Chamber of Commerce had prevailed upon the owner of a dilapidated building to remove same from the gaze of railway passengers passing through their town. Could not the local Chamber of Commerce endeavor to do likewise? We have in Waipawa more than one building condemned by the authorities as unfit for human habitation. If so condemned are the owners not sufficiently proud of their town to remove them from the sight both of the townspeople and those travellers who may happen to be passing through? It
can never be said that such rotting and decaying buildings are an asset to the town, and as they are past repair may I suggest to their owners, Sir, that Waipawa would look better for their removal.—l am, etc., PRO BONO PUBLICO. Waipawa, May 11th, 1939.
