The Imperial authorities, in spite of requests, had failed to send out any more■ money- for tho relief of their men in 2?cw Zealand. The exImperial men felt aggrieved wheu they were- sent away without much help, as they believed that the inouey was in the association* possession for them, but if had all Lccn spont, together with {he sum mentioned above from the association's own fnnds. ' The report of the Applications and Emergency Committees stated that there had been no alteration jn their general activities.
