NATIONAL SAVINGS

NINE OFFICES EXCEED QUOTAS

Nine out of the 10 offices in the Westland postal district bettered their quotas of National Savings deposits last week. The total invested in the district was £1869, a surplus of £BO6. Kumara’s investment of £157/7/6 represented more than six times its quota, Runanga’s weekly total equalled a four weeks’ quota and Brunnerton returned over throe times its objective. Reserves are now depleted and the committee is hopeful for full quotas in the coming week, in order to maintain the unbroken sequence of successes recorded so far in the financial year, . „ Investments of the various offices last week, with surpluses indicated in parenthesis were: —Runanga, D406/19/4 (£306/19/4); Hokitika, £369/13/7 • (£lB4/13/7); Kumara, £157/7/6 (£132/7/6); Brunnerton, £173/12/6 (£123/12/6); Reefton, £lO6/5/- (£33/5/-); Blackball, £76/9/6 (£26/9/6); Greymouth, £528/3/(£B/3/-); Otira, £l5/9/- (£5/9/-);.
