The Holland Memorial.
r FHE QUESTION whether a local body is x fulfilling its duties to its ratepayers by making a donation to a fund for a memorial to the late Mr H. E. Holland, the Labour leader, was discussed at a meeting of the Papakura Town Board. The political aspect was not touched, but Mr D. Weir, an ex-chairman of the board, said that it was not wise in a matter like this to make a donation. He thought it was a question of private subscription from friends and admirers. Papakura is in the late Rt Hon W. F. Massey s electorate, and it refused a similar request when a donation was sought for Mr Massey’s memorial. The board refused to make a donation.
