NO ANSWER FROM COUNCIL
An official of the Society stated that no new hawkers' licences were at present being granted, but the Urban Council had no answer to the question how vegetables, man- ured by nightsoil, became more dangerous when handled by haw kers. The Council, however, went on, to say that there were other reasons, such as the protection of the markets, and, reading between the lines, it would seem that the Idea was to clear the streets alto- gether from hawkers When the pulice issued the licences. the So- clety received # considerable amount of help, but now it was! practically impossible to get a 1- cence of any description,

here.
Another member said not only was the Imports and Exports De- partment restricting hawkers' '11- cences. hut also-shop licences for the sale of wine, cigarettes. The Department argued that there were too many shops and hawkers, but the reply to that argument was that it was surely an economic question-ons of sup- ply and demand. Then came the everlasting retort that the Depart ment had not enough men money to stop smuggling, and that the more shops and hawkers there | cal figures.— were, the greater would be the op- portunity for smuggling........
