CHILDREN FROM BRITAIN.
NO CHANGE IN PLANS. Per Press Association. AUCKLAND, Sept. 23. Recent dispatches received by the Government indicated no variation in the decision of the British authorities to send a number of children to New Zealand, said the Minister of Internal Affairs (Hon. W. E. Parry) to-night. Very complete arrangements had been made for the reception and satisfactory placing of any who were sent to the Dominion, he added. Nominations of children by relatives in New Zealand were still being received, as were offers to take any child allotted. , Mr Parry said that the sympathy and patriotism that New Zealand mothers had extended to the mothers of England were particularly touching and warmly appreciated.
