Government's Morningside Railway Deviation Policy WAITAKERE RANGES LIMITED hereby wishes to record its satisfaction at the success this Company has achieved (that which the Auckland public and its various M.Ps. have failed to achieve in the last twelve months of efforts), namely, drawing the Hon. Minister of Railways to make a public statement regarding the Government’s Morningside Railway Deviation policy. The Company's advertisement on the 15th inst. in all the Auckland papers, Auckland Sun, Mew Zealand Herald, and Auckland Star, stating that the present Government dare not repudiate the Morningside Railway Deviation, has tuo desired effect (which was the Company’s sole object to achieve) of forcing the hands of the Hon. Minister of Railways, consequently on the 18th inst. ha made a public statement announcing that the Government is abandoning the Morningside Railway Deviation scheme. So far as this Company’s and Bondholders’ ii decision will not make the slightest difference, question settled so that, in the event of the devialio: Company would shape its out future transport policy. go through, other transport means, equally efdclent, will be used, and. Deviation or no Deviation, will neither affect nor retard future development of Waitakere as a comin = rich man s suburb of Auckland. Transport conditions are changing fast, and here, as everywhere else, road transport can replace rail transport. However, the Company is of the opinion that Morningside Railway De-iation Scheme is of great public importance and should be proceeded with immediately. In the next 2j to 30 years Auckland’s population will be half a million, of which at least one hundred thousand will be found in the northern suburbs; with such a large number of inhabita a profitable one. Brett’s Almanat . . . There is one thi and expand, and th to predict that the City of Auckland erests are concerned, this he object was to see this not being carried cut, the If this Deviation does not transport question will be 1930, pag ; which is ; i 229, states, * 4 Auckland continues to progress bsolutelv certain. Auckland is destined to advance petent to express an opinion do not hesitate hithin the next thirty years more than double its population; that is to say. the number of its inhabitants will top the half million mark.” It goes on to say: “l a point of population, this wonderful city of the future has out stripped all others in the Dominion. She has never looked back. Prosperity is writ all over her .. . Nature has been specially painstaking with Auckland, and has adorned it with a beauty all its own. Sho has scattered in wonderful profusion throughout the province her marvels, which are,some of the greatest in the world, and as week succeeds week, as month and year go brand beauty. The population of the province is 496.423. or more than one third more and more people come to the shores of the Waitemat3 to behold her progress of the total population of the Dominion. In conclusion prospective investors are again reminded that the Auckland Suburban Land Bonds of £27/10/- each (which are payable £2/10/- deposit, and balance £1 per month for 23 months, free of any interest and free from *0? further costs to the Bondholders, every Bond representing one-quarter of an aero of free and unencumbered Auckland suburban freehold land, which can never bs encumbered nor lost to the Bondholder and for which he will get on the lowest estimate a return of 300 per cent, for his money, beside making a safe and giltedged investment, with £32.000 cash out of Bondholders’ money set aside development of Bondholders’ land), will, from 31st day of neat March (1930), bo purchasable only at a premium of £5 per Bond, namely, £32/10/- each; by a payment of £7/10/- deposit, and the balance £1 per month: also, that a further premium on these Bonds will be recorded within a short period thereafter.
