donations have been received in the past we trust that a realisation o£ the urgent neted of completing th* organisation will prompt members to give more liberally in the future. Organiser.—At present the whole of the local work in connection with the P.P.A. is done gratuitously. The work now, however, is becoming so extensive that to be carried out efficiently it demands constant attention of a paid organiser. In other words, as an Association we hava got about all that we can get fop nothing, and if we desire the completion of the work that has been so well begun in Wanganui and district, then we must arrange to pay for it. The time is quite ripe for the appointment of an organiser for this district and this matter must havo early attention. In conclusion your executive would draw your attention to the brazen campaign of disloyalty and sedition being conducted in New Zealand by the Roman Catholic Press. Secure in the weakness of our Protestant Government, the agents of the Pope arc growing bolder and now openly spend their, strength in vilifying and detaining Britain and everything British. The gospel of hate that is being preached by the Romish hierarchy in New Zealand is clearly part of a world-wide campaign, which constitutes Rome’s effort to destroy Britain, In Australia Rome’s efforts havo brought the country to the verge of civil war. In the United States Rome has, to a large extent, marie the Government Britain’s enemy. In Canada, on the Continent at Home in Britain, everywhere “Rome” is blatantly and truculently manifesting herself as England's enemy, intent on her destruction. Never in history was complete Protestant organisation more urgently necessary. The salvation of our beloved Empire depends upon it. The existauce of those free institutions, that are the glorious heritage of every Britisher to-day, be ho Protestant or Catholic, are at stake and the call goes forth, louder and more insistently, for Protestants to stand saoulder to shoulder to protect the freedom their fathers won, and your executive is confident thai. in New Zealand generally and in Wanganui in particular the call will be obeyed and that Protestants ■will be found during this incoming year giving their time, their talent, their money, to the great and glorous Protestant cause.
