JOTTINGS.
The Auckland Citizens' Patriotic Fund was closed on Saturday. The total sum received in cash was £50,564, over £4OOO having also been subscribed to the Belgian relief fund. A week ago, Mr A. M. Myers, M.P., received a cablegram from his brother in Loudon, stating that 5000 .Jewish refugees from Belgium urgently required assistance. Since then remittances have been received from Jews in all p:wls of New Zealand, and the sum of £935 has been cabled to London. Mr Myers has now received from Mr Leopold Rothschild, treasurer of the fund, the following cablegram: "Convey to all kind donors our most grateful thanks for generous gifts, which is another proof of New Zealand's sympathy with the Mother Country!"
