R.S.A. BUILDING
DEDICATION TO FALLEN SUGGESTION ADOPTED The building in which the Dunedin R.S.A. is housed may be dedicated by the organisation as a war memorial to the fallen of both the 1939-45 and Great Wars if a suggestion put forward to the Executive Committee by Mr D. L. Wood is approved by a general meeting of members of the R.S.A. Mr Wood said that there could be no more fitting memorial from . the members of the services who returned home to those who did not come back than to dedicate to them the building which had been the gift of the public to the R.S.A. Mr Wood suggested that a suitable plaque should be obtained and placed in the building in Moray place, and that the Governor-General, Sir Bernard Freyberg, should be asked to perform the dedication ceremony when he is in Dunedin in February of next year.' On the motion oi Mr N. G. Stewart the Executive Committee decided to adopt the suggestion in principle, and a sub-committee comprising ,Mr D. L. Wood and Mr K. W. Stewart was set up. It was also decided to obtain the approval of a general meeting of members to the proposal.
