MORTGAGE RELIEF
HEAVY APPLICATION INDICATED [Peb United Peess Association.] WELLINGTON, December 16. No general statistical returns of applications for financial relief under the Mortgagors and Lessees Rehabilitation Act have yet been received in Wellington, but there are indications of a fairly substantial request for farm and property mortgage adjustments. The Attorney-General (the Hon. H. G. R. Mason) said to-day that the only returns of applications available so far were from the Christchurch district. In this centre there were approximately 6,000 applications for mortgage adjustment. This in itself gave an indication of the ultimate aggregate for the whole Dominion. The 'Minister emphasised that the closing date for giving notice to guarantors was December 31 of this year, while the closing date for making applications for adjustment was January 31, 1937.
