FAR EAST RELIEF FUND
RED CROSS SOCIETY'S APPEAL In connection with the Red Cross Society's appeal for the Far East Relief Fund, the Mayor (the Rev. E. T. Cox) has circularised a number of boroughs and county councils throughout Otago and Southland, suggesting that their respective districts and areas contribute their share, and specifying what would be reasonable sums, In some instances this has been interpreted to mean that the councils should contribute. This is not the case. The suggestion made by his Worship was that the money should be raised in the districts by public subscription, and that the various councils should t cooperate by establishing organisations for this purpose.
