OFFENDERS TO PAY

Dept’s Claims Allowed (N.Z. Press Association) WELLINGTON, Oct. 29. For the first time, the crimes compensation tribunal today sanctioned applications by the Department of Justice to enable the department to reimburse itself from offenders for compensation paid by the department under the Criminal Injuries Compensation Act. Orders by the tribunal will allow the department to refund itself from three offenders, one of whom is in prison. Orders were made against Kenneth Russell Trevarthen, a bank worker, now serving a three-year sentence for assault with intent to rob (£29 9s lOd), Patrick Laurence Harpur, on probation for assault (£10), and Vai Arapai, convicted of assault (£l2 2s). In none of the applications will the offenders be asked to pay the whole amount of compensation paid to the victims. PLAGUED BY SKIN AILMENTS Sometimes a cut or even a tiny scratch just won't heal and develops into a pasty sore. An ointment, made by Ayrton Saunders, of Liverpool, England is now specially imported to meet this need. Known all over the world for Its amazing healing power, this ointment heals skin infections so quickly that you wonder how you ever did without it.

A tin costs only 3s 3d. Ayrton’s Antiseptic Healing Cream. From chemists everywhere. Distributed by Salmond and Spraggon, Ltd., Wellington. —Advt.
