MORE FAITH NEEDED’
(N.Z. Press Association) NEW PLYMOUTH, July 20.

In moving a remit recommending this, the Hawera independent branch said that in spite of great scientific advances, many people were reluctant to accept treatment available and had on occasions removed children, and at great expense and possible harm, taken them long distances for the advice of faith healers.
