HELP FROM DAIRYMEN
DONATION'SUGGESTED
(By Telegraph.—Preßs Association.) i . TIMABU, This Day. ■ The following is a copy of • a telegram sent by Mr. B. Hughes, of Temuka,..to- the New, Zealand Dairy Produce Board: —"For the urgent consideration of the board: On behalf of the dairy companies! under my control, and representing a large' proportion of dairymen in this distict, it is suggested that the board should grant, from its accumulated ; funds, a substantial amount, not less than £5000, towards earthquake relief, as a subscription from '.the" dairy-farmers of New Zealand. It is felt that owing to economic conditions farmers themselves, generally speaking, will be unable to subscribe as they might desire, and as the ■board has considerable' unexpended moneys which have been collected by way of levies on-dairy produce, it is considered that a portion of this money could be applied for this purpose." The telegram is signed by Mr. Hughes as secretary of the Milford, Clandeboyo, and Orari Dairy Companies. .'.
