MUNICIPAL COTTAGES,
Per Press Association
Hamilton, Friday
The Hamilton Borough Council last evening decided to go into the question of setting aside an area of borough endowments for the municipal purpose of erecting municipal cottages. The Mayor remarked that the high rents in Hamilton were scandalous. The borough certainly should take steps towards the erection of cottages for working men at reasonable rentals. It might be possible later on to obtain Government assistance in the matter.
