LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
"FIRST THINGS FIRST" ■ ' Sir, — On reading reports in your ; paper regarding a peace memorial and the estimated cost of same,' which would be prohibitive at present, may I suggest that the committee' combinie the' centennial park . scheme with the war memorial and; utilise the land purchased by citi-l zens as a war memorial site. Thei playgrpund is 'urge.ntly nee.ded and' space could be spared for a build- j ing for meetings which would ful- 1 fil the needs very well. To proceed^ with both objects would be a drag, for years to come, as there will be i other calls on the citizens for whati is lef i of their earnings when taxes ; and rates are paid and the high; cost of living is met.- Yours etc., 1 "LOpKING AHEAD." Otaki, june 25.
