Owing to /the funds provided by the Unemployment Board not being sufficent to provide unemployed workers in the Borough with full, time for Xmas week, and, in order to create a fund to relieve cases of distress and to assist unemployment, His WorslTp the Mayor of Hokitika, publishes an appeal for contribu/uous to a fund to be known as the Mayor’s Fund. One suggestion that contributors should give a regular monthly payment to the Fund, has this merit, that the effort will be a sustained one, and will enable the fund to be administered to better effect. There is no doubt that some such Fund is necessary, and people who are in a position which enables them to spare something- of their earnings, will have the satisfaction of knowing that they are doing their navt- towrr-ls assisting to carry the Country through one of its most trying experiences. *
