WARM TRIBUTES
DOCTORS RETURN FROM CHINA By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, October 26. Warm tributes to Drs. Robert Gray (Auckland) and Hector C. Tremewan (Wellington), for splendid services in the Sino-Japanese war area, were paid by speakers at a public welcome in their honour. The welcome was arranged by the Far East Relief Committee of the joint Council of the Order of St. John and the New Zealand Red Cross Society. Tile Deputy-Mayor, Mr M. F. Luckie, presided. The Minister of Defence (Hon. F. Jones) who represented the Government, stated that the Government, by donating £lOOO had shown that it recognised the good work done by the organisation which launched the appeal. The experience the two doctors had gained in China must prove of value to them and to the community in future.
