Relief Fund Mounts
p. 13 · Read in the full issue
AT the end of March the Mt. Laming ton Relief Fund had reached a total of nearly £13,000. As the Fund does not close until May 31, and many func tions in aid of the appeal are still being held, even the most optimistic estimates of the final total will undoubtedly be exceeded. Individual donations are also still coming in in considerable volume.
The Fund Committee is already working out plans for distribution of the money to Europeans and natives needing finan cial assistance as a result of the eruption.
All sections of the Territory have given very generous support to this appeal, in cluding native and Asiatic communities as well as Europeans.
