ELECTION THANKS I am privileged to thank generally my considerable number of friends and supporters for having east votes for me at the recent Borough Council Election, and particularly those persons who approached me to stand, for their confidence in me. Having decided to let my name go forward as a candidate it became my fiVm resolve to test the feeling of electors upon my proved merits only and now, as a local resident of less than six years duration, unknown personally to the. majority of electors and, comparatively speaking, well known to few of them only,
I 1 have every reason to feel particularly satisfied with the final result displayed by the poll. Perhaps i shall be persuaded to try again some day, but in the meantime I am pleased to remain happy in the thought that it 4s better to have tried and failed than not to have tried at all. Thank you one and all. L. R. SPRING, Whakalane, 29/5/44. 293 BOROUGH COUNCIL ELECTION I: wish to express my thanks to those electors who supported me so generously at the Council elections.
