TRAMCARS OR AUTOMOBILES

To the Editor of the "Norra-Carsa Darty News.

Damar Sie,—On the 1th inst, Mr. Campbell told the ratepayers that' particulars of his scheme for Motor Omnibuses would be lodged with the Municipal Council within three days of that date.

It is now ten days therefrom, and nothing forth-r, as far as T have been able to gather, has been heard of it. If the suitability of this form of rapid transit' is going to be settled inside the Council Room, there was no reason for the adjournment. of the discussion on the amendment he proposed.

But if th" ratepayers are to be a'lowel to come to any cold conclusions of their own, 1t would be as well if th-y could know something definite about the proposed alternative, so that when we meet to discuss the matter, ona day which seems to mo singularly appropriate, we may be able to withstand the subtle effects of the itea xrepievra of the proposer.

T am, etc., A Raterayer. 21st March.
