It has been decided that applications for investment in the War Loan for all classes of bonds will be accepted for a further period.
Those coming to hand up to Saturday next will carry interest as from the 3rd September. Those coming to hand after that date will carry interest as from the date upon which the money is lodged to public account or with the Post Office. After the end of this week fully-paid subscriptions only will be accepted. Subscriptions to thi loan are still steadily flowing in, particularly from the remote country districts, to which Sir Joseph Ward sent a special circular. Investment of £5000 of the Tramways and Electric Lighting Accident Fund in war certificates was approved by the City Council last night. The Mayor explained' that the Finance Committee had been in touch with the Sinking Fund Commissioners, who found they could spare £15,000 for the loan, and by taking £5000 from the Accident Fund they were able to make up tho round sum of £20,000.
