PARCELS FOR OVERSEAS
MEN IN GREAT BRITAIN HOW THEY SHOI LD BE SENT. (Press Assn.) Wellington. Sept. 30. Some misapprehension still appears to exist in connection with parcels for New Zealanders serving in the United Kingdom, said the Postmaster-Gen-eral the Hon. P. C. Webb, in a statement to-night. Such parcels to men in the Navy and Air Force, he said, should be sent care of the New Zealand War Services
1 Association, 415 Strand, London 'W.C.2, otherwise they will be liable to Customs duty in Britain and subject to restrictions applicable to civilians' parcels. Parcels to members of the New Zealland Forestry Unit should be sent direct to that unit, said the Minister. It was advisable for New Zealanders serving in the United Kingdom, except members of the Forestry Unit, to keep the New Zealand War Services Association advised of their whereabouts to facilitate delivery of the parcels.
