WAIMAKARIRI CAMPS
MAY BE CLOSED DOWN. By Telegraph—Press Association CHRISTCHURCH, April 11. The Waimakariri River Trust had planned to establish a camp with 150 four-day relief workers this week, but to-day only 57 men offered for work. Unless the full number are in camp by Wednesday, the engineer will recommend that the camp be closed down. The Trust, he stated, could not establish a camp costing £2OO for 57 men, and unless the men selected came forward he would recommend that the whole scheme be abandoned.
