TENDERS FOR GOVERNMENT
UNIFORMS.
-k:
To THE EDITOR.
SIR, May I ask the Colonial Treasurer
through your columns how it is that for
years there have been no tenders called for
clothing in the Harbour and Light Department.
Is it through favouritism that one
particular tailor is twice a year showered
with large orders to the detriment of the
tailors of Perth and Fremantle, who would
be only too glad to have a chance of tendering,
when perhaps there might be a
big saving in price. I throw this out as
a hint to Sir John I trust that the matter
only needs mentioning through the
Press, and that he will do justice to all by -.
at once calling for tenders for the whole of f~
the Harbour and Light Department's /
clothing. Yours, etc, A
mr «TVPQ-ITAV
Perth, February 24.
