ST. SAVIOUR'S ORPHANAGE FINANCES
♦__ — M A deficit of £I7OO on expenditure of between £6OOO and £7OOO is almost an indication that the diocese has lost
interest in the homes, or is dissatisfied with something," states Bishop West-Watson in his monthly letter to readers in the December issue of the "Church News." "I am glad to know that the market for St. Saviour's brought in a good sum, but am seriously concerned by the last statement of accounts. It may be that the large sums left.to the homes have suggested that they are not in need, or that they should draw on these bequests for current expenses. I would venture to point out that many of these large sums have fallen in since we made it our policy to capitalise legacies." In "The Press" yesterday it was incorrectly reported that the Bishop's reference was to the market for St. George's Hospital. This should have read as published above.
