The Manawatu Herald. Saturday, February 19, 1910. MUNICIPAL “PICKINGS.”
The exposure at Napier of Councillors in receipt of profit from the Borough Council, thereby making themselves liable to a heavy fine under the Municipal Corporations Act, is having its effect on other local governing bodies throughout the Dominion. Questions are being asked, and corruption wiped out. Eltham is the latest to come into publicity. The Eltham Argus understands that owing to an unwitting infringement of the disqualification clause of the Municipal Corporations Act, at least one, probably two, of the Eltham Borough Councillors will deem it necessary to send in their resignations. What will happen to these Councillors if the auditor gets on to their tracks ?
