Grey suggested that steps should be tak n to control charity functions. lfe sai 1 he had knowledge of entertainments I eing organised that were in no way ass >ciated with the recognised charitable bod es, and unless some check were applied t licrc would be overlapping. The Mayor, Mr. H. T. Clements, said the council lu d no authority to interfere with house col lections or public functions, and it was di ficult to stop them. Mr. J. \ . [.awes said lie did not see any need for interference. Is'o responsible society would send out collectors without some ba Ige of authority, and tho public \\.as sufficiently discriminating in its support. It was dec tied, on the motion of Mr. Ore j', to ad', iso the public that before any entertain nent could be given in tho borough for charity purposes a permit •would have to be obtained from the Mayor.
