GALLIPOLI MEMORIAL.
IN HONOUR OF NEW ZEALANDERS. Wellington, Last Night. The Minister of Defence announced to-day that the High Commissioner, on behalf of New Zealand, had signed a contract for the erection on Gallpoli of a battle memorial to commemorate the exploits of the New Zealanders. Some difficulty was experienced in securing a suitable site, so that the momorial should be visible on both sides from the sea, but the site chosen at Chanak Bair seemed to satisfy requirements in that direction. The contract price for the memorial was £4,822.
