MUNICIPAL PICTURES.
'By Ttkgraph—Press Association-2
FOXTON, Last Night. The 'Mayor of Foxton interviewed the Minister at Wellington yesterday, with reference to inserting a clause in the Amending Municipal Corporations Act, empowering municipalities to provide and control picture entertainments. The Minister and the iStatutesi Revision Committee have consented to such a clause being inserted.
On a writ of injunction to restrain the Foxton Council from showing moving pictures , the Ghief Justice recently ruled that no provision was made in the Act empowering corporations to include moving pictures under their jurisdiction. If the House adopts the clause picture entertainments will be municipally controlled in many centres.
