OAMARU, January 24
A motion was carried by six votes to two at a meeting of the Waitaki Hospital Board in favour of applying to the Loans Board for a loan of £BO,OOO to carry out extensions and instal equipment at the Oamaru Public Hospital. The Waitaki County Council and the Oamaru Borough Council have withheld consent to the loan till plans and specifications have been placed before contributing authorities. The hospital board has also received petitions circulated by the Farmers’ Union throughout North Otago and signed by 405 ratepayers and two other petitions signed by 56 ratepayers emphatically protesting against the loan. Half of the £BO,OOO is to be found by the hospital ’district and half by the Government. The protests will be forwarded with the application for the loan to the Loans Board.
