Now, Sir, I take it that the build- " ing of houses for the people is first ,. ... priority. If it is not, anyway it cer-;!;jif , tainly should be.' Yet, I notice three ^ y carpenters at work building a,newr"];a ; saloon bar in one of our local hotels./ Trr'--Now, Sir, could not these men be.."5^1 " employed on more urgently rieces-;/ ' sdry work than ihis? , Surely fioteL ^ irtiproVements should cbme last duririg the present shOrtagfe of housing accommodation. — Y'ours, etc'., -qo"
