ART UNION PROFITS
GRANTS WANTED FOR SPORTS \ 'BODIES A SYMPATHETIC REFUSAL (Per United Press Association) WELLINGTON, Oct. 7. Though admitting the merit of the claims for financial help of some of the sports bodies whose membership had been affected by the calling up of men for military service, the Minister of Internal Affairs (Mr W. E. Parry) told a deputation to-dav grants to the bodies from art union funds could not be made. The profits from that source were still, he said, being paid over by the Government to Dominion mayoral relief funds for the immediate relief of cases of distress not covered by the Social Security Act. . . The Minister mentioned that giving by the people to the funds to help the fighting forces had had an effect on art union profits.
