Flats in Hastings
"UNE OF THE TENANTS."
Sir, — Your correspondwnt "ju-ase Needed" has given quite a wrong impression of the premises referred to with the fifteen batch.es that have been built. As a tenant of these premises, I can vouch for tho comfortabJe furnishings of these flats, and that similar comfotts would be hard to find uot only in flats but in a good many private houses. As to the statement about seeing ueighbours dress, this is ridiculous. Perhaps it ean bo best auswered by referring to a case which came to Court in Napier some years ago. The case concerned a youth and a girl whose bedroom windows faeed each other. The complaint was that one undressed in t'ront- of the other and gave offence by so doing. The Magistrate very right ly pointed out that people who look through other people 's windows see what they waut to see. He also remarked on the impurity of the mind oi people who look for somcthing bad to complaint nbout. — Yours. etc.,
Hastinge, Sept. 27; 1937-
