WANGANUI’S WAR MEMORIAL.
RESULT OF PLEBISCITE. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wanganui, Last Night. Some months ago, following a public meeting, various local bodies appointed delegates to select a site and the form of a memorial to men of town and suburbs and the district who took part in the war. A memorial tower and hall of memories, to be placed on Durie Hill, from which it would be seen for many miles around, was decided upon, but objection was raised by a section who wanted a small memorial in Queen’s Park. A plebiscite was taken to-day, the Queen’s Park proposal receiving 987 votes, as against 487 for Durie Hill. Something like seven thousand voters are eligible.
