In 1945, just after the end of the War, 33,000 houses were connected to the sewerage system of Christchurch. Today more than 53,000 houses are linked up with the system (this represents an increase of 60 per cent.) and the demand for new sewerage connections is as great as ever. This shows the pressing need for more money to be invested in the Christchurch Drainage Board Loan of £300,000. This Loan is to finance essential work in hand and calls for early investment. 5 per cent. Interest is paid and investments may be made at any bank, with any member of the N.Z. Stock Exchange or at the Office of the Christchurch Drainage Board, 198 Hereford Street.
