just this If you want railway station we are perfectly willing that you should have it but you will have to help pay for it yourselves That was the adswer which was received by theDevelop ment Corporation of Bsslldari New Town in Essex whenit conveyed toBritish Hallways largelysigned petition from the population asking for new railway station to serve this rapidlygrowing community narsmc FUNDS The railway management was in dead earnest in making tips proposal The people of Basrldun New Town were just as much in earnest about wanting their station Tinatown centre section of the Baslldon Chamber of Trade at once went into action and has sEt up committee to raise funds locally to help with the financing of the new Stat lfln The new station will cost anything from $450000 to $500 000 so the local council the development corporation mer chants and industrialists and the general public will all be asked to contribute One sugges ted scale of contributions asks keepers and
