The local branch of tbe A.A.A. has made itself responsible for a car for each block. Goods will be taken to the Central Hall, where they will be sorted and made ready for distribution. It is expected that as early as possible next week distribution to those in need will commence. The public is asked to have all parcels ready on Saturday morning for the collectors when they come.
