Pt. Moresby, May 3.
THE Papuan division of the Red Cross Society have been informed that their contribution of £690, for warded by the people of Papua in response to special appeals for ambu lances for the fighting forces, resulted in one complete ambulance being presented.
The balance helped to secure two others.
In view of Papua’s population of under 2,000 white residents, the subscription of amounts exceeding £9,000 for various war efforts, including Red Cross contribu tions, is a praiseworthy effort.
