A New Man For The Lepers?
Mr P J. Twomey, Secretary of the New Zealand Leper’s Trust Board, is beginning to feel the strain of office, according to a New Zealand report. He is looking for somebody to take “a substantial part of the routine administration work” from his shoulders.
It’s not surprising. Mr. Twomey, who is almost 70, has spent half his lifetime helping other people, and has, through his own efforts, raised more than £5 00,000 for the work among lepers.
He says that with some of the work off his hands he is going to devote himself to the task of build ing more dispensaries to save native mothers and children from tropical diseases and malnutrition.
