WELLINGTON WAR MEMORIAL CARILLON SOCIETY (INC.): ANNUAL REPORT OF COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 1942. The Carillon Committee has met from time to time as required. An expert survey of the mechanism revealed that repairs and replacements would have to be made in order to continue the operations of the Carillon. As the necessary expert labour was not available, the Carillon has not been in operation for the past few months. Arrangements, however, have been made for the care of the equipment to prevent further deterioration. Alfred Cowles, Chairman, Carillon Management Committee.
