KNITTING WOOL.
I endorse every word of "Knitter's" letter appearing in your column a few days ago. It is a disgrace to New Zealand that many mother;, with small children, their husband? in the forces and having to exist on smaller money, find themselves no v.* unable to buy wool of any kind. Certainly our men in the "forces must have woollen garments, but out o: the surplus could not mothers b? able to give their tiny offspring their very birthright, warmth. We see machine-knitted garments by their hundreds at high prices in the shops. What is wrong? Our Plunket centre. I am sure, would be only too willing to take over the sale of soft baby wool to expectant mothers and mothers of tinv-tots. Cannot something be done about this shocking state of affairs. EMPTY HANDED.
