CHRISTCHURCH RELIEF EFFORTS.
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Friday. The unemployment question was discussed at a meeting to-day, at which the Mayor, Mr. J. K. Archer, presided. Mr. Archer said they had not put into operation the organisation of former years as they bad promised to co-operate with the Government. As a result they had no funds. The Government would validate a loan, but he did not know whether the Finance Committee of the council would sanction a «oan for providing
work for unemployed. It was decided to organise on the same lines as last year; and get into touch with the City Council and other local bodies to see if they would agree to subsidise approved works. It was also decided to ask the city Finance Committee for a subsidy up to £750.
