SHEEPOWNERS' FUND
CLAIMS OF PRESENT WAR REORGANISATION OF GRANTS FORESHADOWED (Per United Press Association) WELLINGTON, Sept. 26. The annual meeting of the New Zealand Sheepowners' Acknowledgment of Debt to British Seamen Fund was held to-day. The managing trustee (Mr T. R. Lees) said there had been an accretion of £ 108,243, and it had been decided to allocate £20,000 of the present funds to work in connection with the present war. It might be possible to double the allocation after all the claims from the previous war had been met. Requests had been sent out to all contributors and 230 approvals had been received, showing that probably consent would be unanimous. Later on it would be necessary to contribute, especially to a fund for survivors of the present war. The approval of the National Patriotic Board would be necessary. , . , Mr Edward Newman was re-elected chairman.
