DISORDER AT ROTOROA
POLICE ASSISTANCE SOUGHT. Press Association. AUCKLAND, June 14. In the absence of the Salvation Army officer in charge at the Inebriates’ Home at Rotoroa Island, a number of the inmates got out of hand on Thursday night and caused a disorderly scene. A number of windows were smashed, and telephone connection with the mainland cut. Later, when the officers returned, several of the inmates refused to work. The managers applied for police assistance in preserving order, and two constables proceeded to the island last night.
