RED GROSS SOCIETY
DOMINION COUNCIL i TPjw United Press Assoo&tion.] WELLINGTON, April 2. The annual meeting of the Dominion Council of the Red Cross Society was held this afternoon. The year’s work was reviewed by Mr L. C. H. Tripp, It was to be noted, he said, from the figures given in the annual report in reference to patients in hospitals and sanatoria that the numbers the society cared for had increased to no fewer than 710. The report and balance-sheet showed that the year had witnessed a still further inroad into capital resources. In consequence of the difficult financial period through which the country was passing some of the society’s assets, whilst probably 100 per cent, secure, were not readily realisable, which complicated the work of some of the centres in carrying on. All the centres continued to maintain the closest co-operation with the National War Funds Council, the War Relief Association, the R.S.A., and other patriotic and relief organisations, and in Vtbat way overlapping was eliminated.
