VOLUNTARY AIDS’ WORK
VALUE IN PEACE AND WAR (New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, April 12. The value of the work which voluntary aids could do and were doing in peace-time as well as in war was emphasised by speakers at the Dominion council meeting of the Red Cross Societys’ voluntary aid detachments today. The Mayoress (Mrs R. L. Macalister) opened the meeting. The director of nursing (Miss F. J. Cameron) emphasised that it was desirable that the voluntary aid detachments and the nursing services co-op-erate. The matron-in-chief of the New Zealand Army Nursing Services (Miss J. McKay) spoke of the valuable help voluntary aids gave in army camp hospitals. The director-general of the Red Cross voluntary aid detachments (Mrs M. Hodgkinson) said there was plenty of work for the aids in the Dominion all the time. She congratulated centres where the aids were remaining active and keen without the spur of war.
