I WAS interested in the item "Gloom town is traders' fault" (Shuttle/Times and News, April 29).

Town and county councillor Frank Baillie's remarks to the effect that traders are trying to sell the wrong things were presumably meant to be constructive.

Perhaps he should have continued, if he is seriously interested in a flourishing Bewdley, by suggesting what he thinks would be the right types of trade that could be introduced.
