HOSPITAL LEVIES.
AMENDMENTS URGED. At the Thames County Council meeting on Wednesday a. letter from the Ashley County Council asked fo’’ support to a proposal that l-3rd of the annual hospital levy should be calculated on the population and twothirds on the capital value of the contributing districts to make the levy more fait as between the rural areas and the more thickly populated districts .that are chief u'sers of the hospital. I?he circular concluded: “Please ask the members of Parliament for your district to work for the inclusion of the proposal]! in the new Bill. The chairman considered that the proposal should, have the Councils’ support and that it was only right that the rating should be done on valuation. The whole matter was one of population. It was agreed to support the proposition and to add that the Government be requested to be responsible for the hospital charges on native properties on which np rates .are collected.
