Kiwanis keep U.S. link
PA Auckland New Zealand Kiwanis will remain affiliated to their parent organisation in the United States. A remit calling for New Zealand clubs to withdraw from the international body because of United States retaliation over the A.N.Z.U.S. row was defeated unanimously by delegates at a meeting of the North Shore-Massey division on
d Saturday. The former lieutenants governor of the Takapuna o club, Mr Denis Turner, put a forward the remit, calling for Kiwanis to stop paying v the $24 a head affiliation fee v to their parent organisation. / The lieutenant-governor s of the North Shore-Massey s division, Mr Murray Pile, i said the remit had provoked t little discussion. i “It was very quick and i quiet,” he said.
Mr Turner said he had mixed feelings about its defeat. “It was an individual proposal, although I had discussed it with a dozen members of the Takapuna club, who supported it,” he said. Mr Turner said he had been reprimanded for using the Kiwanis club for a political purpose, and the remit had been “squashed” as a result.
