WELLINGTON, This Day. The esteem in which Major-Genera! Sir Andrew Russell, G.O.O. of the New Zealand Division in France, is held by returiied soldiers was exemplified at the R.S.A. conference when it was stated that a portrait of Sir Andrew was to be hung in the National Art Gallery but that subseriptions from returned soldiers were some £20 short. Within a few minutes a large sum was subscribed, delegates vying with one another for recognition of their districts. It was suggested that miniature prints of the portrait should be made available and also that larger oopies should be made for individual associations.
