MONEY FOR RACES
BUT NONE FOB MEAT. By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright. Wellington, Jan. 25. A relief worker’s wife, when applying for a meat ration on Saturday at the depot where distribution was being made for those unable to obtain meat for the week-end owing to the butcher’s holiday, was unwise enough to state that her husband was at the races. Thereafter the other applicants were questioned, and none of those replying in the affirmative were given the right to have free meat, it being considered that if they had money for races they could buy their own meat.
