“It has been found that Saturday is the best day of the week for holding elections,” said Mr R. M. Macfarlane (Government, Christchurch South) during the second reading of the Christchurch Tramway District Amendment Bill in the House of Representatives yesterday. The Bill, which alters the date of the Christchurch Tramway Board elections from the last Thursday to the last Saturday in November in every third year, was put through its remaining stages and passed, Mr Macfarlane receiving the customary applause accorded to a new member who successfully pilots his first Bill through the House.
