Suva Town Board Settles Down to Work
From Our Own Correspondent SUVA, March 25.
FROM all appearances, the new Suva Town Board seems to be settling dow r n to work, and taking up where the Muni cipal Council left off.
It is too early yet to compare its work with that of the Council, but from meet ings, it would seem that the Board is op posed to any increase of expenditure which might lead to an increase in rates and an attitude of “I told you so” from those who opposed the change over.
Interest in the matter seems to have dropped to quite an extent so far as the general public is concerned, and there seems to have been adopted a lackadaisical disinterested attitude toward the Town Board.
Those who opposed the Suva Town Board, however, still hope for some resulf from the visit to England of the late Mayor (Hon. Alport Barker). During Mr. Bar ker’s absence, his place on the Town Board is being filled by Mr. Pat Costello.
