COUNCIL ADVERTISING

To the Editor. Sir, —Perhaps you will allow me a little space in your valuable paper to say a few words. It is about that “ white elephant ” tender I read about in your last paper. The affair will undoubtedly prove a bugbear and collapse unless different tactics are indulged in. I had heard—at least he said so himself—that he has had considerable and varied experience—very varied no doubt. Well, what I want to ask is: What is the game ? for they are only playing at business. Four pence per inch, ugh ! One pays more than that price per inch for a “ pony *’ beer in the “ Pump Room ” at any of our hotels But now that the reporter-cum-manager-cum editor director has decided to charge 4d per inch for advertising, I hope us poor ratepayers in the out-districts will be treated in the same manner, and that all will be treated alike. Of course, sir, we do not ask you to sink to such a level; we are, as stated in a recent issue of the News, prepared to give value for value, and pay accordingly. Please try and get this in.—l am, etc..
