Auckland, February 21. ihe regulation of tho accommodation in boardinghouses and hotels :lias been sng-i.-to .tl ie Auckland City Council by tho District Health Officer, as a matter deserving consideration • iir view of tho prospectavo rush of visitors during the «£- jubition period. In a letter received at last -evening's meeting of tho council, Dr. MakgiU wrote that there would bo a great tendency,'especially in the cheaper typo of boardiughouses, to overtax the accommodation.

Sub-Section 7 of tho Act, "would be very* useful, and if the law permits, it would bo an excellent tiling- to compel nil lodginghouses'to obtain a license from tie council before they could lawfully tako lodgers.
