Crippled Children problems
The working loss suffered by the New Zealand Crippled Children Society has ex-' ceded $lOO,OOO for the second successive year. The society’s president, i Mr J. R. Mills, said in the! annual report, that ex-1 penditure for . the last year I had been $219,000, and tire deficit was $136,000. “Our financial position ' would have been critical ifi we had not received $lll,OOO i in bequests,” he said. “Even so, this source of income is' never assured, and we can--not rely on it to stop the in-' creasing erosion of our funds.” Financial restrictions! would inevitably mean that’ fewer people could be sent ’ overseas for training, research would have to be reduced, and advanced, treatment for disabled children would be curbed.
