DOMINION WILLING
SHARE IN UNRRA WORK
"I have had the finest co-opera-tion from everyone," said Mr. Rolf Nugent, economic adviser to the Bureau of Supply. United Nations' Relief and Rehabilitation Adminis-. tration, when speaking of the results of his mission to New Zealand in a broadcast interview last night. "I am convinced that both the Government and the people of New Zealand are ready to do even more than their share in the work of preventing human suffering," he' added. Mr. Nugent stated that Unrra would particularly like to get from New Zealand cheese, meat and dried milk. The use of dehydrated foods was being considered. After food, medical supplies would be the most pressing need. Unrra's work included the return of some 7,000,000 people to their home countries, and there was also an enormous job to , be done in China. He anticipated all this would take at least three years.
