PROMPT RESPONSE
NELSON'S GRATITUDE
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) NELSON, This Day. The following resolution was passed by the Nelson City Council, which, with, a few additions, including Murehison representatives, comprises the Nelson Belief Committee:-— "That this council desires to express to Sir Joseph Ward its grateful thanks for his Government's very prompt response to all requests made for the purpose of alleviating the distress and disorganisation resulting from the recent earthquake. The council also desires to convey its great appreciation of the very fine services so willingly rendered by the various Government Departments concerned, notably the railway service, telegraph and telephone service, and the public works service, in keeping transport possible, all being onerous, and the two latter at times distinctly dangerous. * "In connection with the problem of devastation relief the future will entail considerable work and expenditure, and we trust that the. local committee will continue to receive the same sympathetic practical assistance."
