PROMPT ACTION
INDICATION of the swiftness of local body action which can follow representations when the prick of conscience is deep enough was exemplified by the Whakatane Hospital Board last week. For too many years that little forgotten building, known as the ‘morgue’ has served as a wicked and infamous advertisement for the town. When brought forcibly to the notice of the Board, members without exception joined in describing it as a ‘disgrace’ and rectifying measures were quickly takeri. If sleepy, apatHetic residents were alert enough they too might find many other features of this town crying out for correction. . \ 1
