Lae-Yet
mHE matter of a second hotel at JL Lae, New Guinea, has been
temporarily deferred.
It was brought up at the Febru ary meeting of the Lae Town Ad visory Council, and deferred until March. The Council said it con sidered there were sufficient liquor licences and accommodation for Lae at present. It was suggested, however, that a second hotel site might be reserved.
It is rumoured that there might be a third hotel for Port Moresby.
It would go to Boroko, at the 4-mile, and cater for the thirsty people along the Rouna Road. There is the big Commonwealth Department
of Works mess at 4-mile. Any new hotel would, of course, have also to cater for accommodation.
