THE RAILWAY SERVICE.
BETTER SUBURBAN SERVICES. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, October 21. Replying to a deputation which waited on him to-day from the Onslow Progressive Association relative to railway matters, Mr Massey said the whole of the suburban services were under consideration and being revised. Ho agreed that one of the main remedies for the housing problem was an improved suburban railway servica, but everything could not be done at once. Officers of the Railway Department were working hard on the suburban services and a new time-table would be put into operation on December 1. It was the policy of the Government and the department to meet the requirements of the people. From his experience as a resident in Auckland and Wellington he knew the conditions and circumstances were constantly changing and what might be good enough one year was not good enough next year. The department had to move with the times and would do so. realising that the railways were the property of the people run to meet the people's needs.
