WAR MEMORIAL.
CARILLON NOT ACCEPTED. By Telegraph—Press Association. WELLINGTON, March 31. Tho Society formed lor the purpose of establishing a carillon of bells in Wellington, urged that it should form the War Memorial, but the Committee in charge of tho latter refuses on the ground that the Memorial must, be of non-utilitarian character. ; The Society next offered to present a carillon with conditions as part of the Memorial. This, too was declined. The Society insisted there was such a strong feeling in favour of the caril-' lion that a plebiscle of subscribers ought to be taken jn. ■ ..- Tile Committee, in effect, replied that it was nobody’s business, .. .but theirs, and refused to’take a vote. In consequence the Society has abandoned its attempt to work 1 with" the Committee, .and has .determined. .to.erert a carillon as a War Memorial ’of its own, independent of the Committee.
