“AN ERRONEOUS IDEA”
UNANIMITY ESSENTIAL. For Ratepayers’ Benefit. In returning thanks to members for their kind personal remarks on Friday, Cr. J. W. Anderson, who has acted as chairman of the Matamata County Council for some 16 years, and has therefore a ripe experience of the duties of the position, stressed the success of a policy of forbearance by member?. He emphasised that some people bad an erroneous idea that if council j members were quarrelling they were doing good work, while if they worked together harmoniously there was
a clique at work for their own ends. This was entirely wrong. For the more members worked together the better the service ratepayers got. It had always been his policy to use the utmost tact in order to get all to work together as harmoniously as possible. The chairman’s remarks were received with confident expressions of agreement by members.
