RELIEF FOR MINERS
RESPONSE TO PRINCE OF WALES’S APPEAL
(British Official Wireless.)
Rugby, December 28.
The manner in which the broadcast speech of the Prince of Wales on Christinas Day appealed to the imagination of his listeners was shown yesterday both by the Prince’s postage at York House and by that of the Lord Mavor at the Mansion House. At the Mansion House the morning post alone brought in between 17,000 and 18,000 letters. The contents of these were dealt with by a special staff of clerks, and throughout the day acknowledgments of gifts were being sent out to donors by every post. Last evening the Lord Mayor’s fund, including promised Government contributions, amounted to over £640,000.
