KS. A. APPROVAL (Per Press Association) Wellington, February 28 It was decided at a meeting of tile Wellington Returned Soldiers’ Association this evening to continue to support nine Imjvs per year—sons of soldiers—at Flock House for a period of two years at a cost of £loo.

Other speakers spoke in high terms of the work of the institution, and a motion in support of maintaining boys for two further years was passed unanimously.
