PAHIATUA ASTRAY.
The Pafi'aFua Hospital Committee, -NiWbich is a sub-committee of tlie Wairajrapa Hospital and Clha.rita.ble Aid Boa.rd, punsued tho somewhat extraordinary course the other day of criticising the administration of the Board. Mr S. Boiton (who, by the sway, is a memiber of the Board), • (made the astounding statement -that i' It was -estirmated tiat .-there -would be an increase of £9OOO or £IO,OOO this year in the expenditure on hospitals ' and charitable,add in..the Wiairarapa ■ dis"t-rict ; ;". • -Wheti'it'ls remembered that'the total 'es^mates' ! -f 'or -the year .(including a gift of '£2ooo by Mr Buchanan) only amount- to £10,000; the absurdity of this statement will at once be apparent. . Members of the Bahiatua Cbmmibtc© averted that a policy of "gra>b" seemed, rampant •■with. Mastsirt'ou and Grey town. It need hardly be said that there is ab- ■ iSolutely no foundation for such an assertion. We rare surprised that the JPabiartaia saih-ccminittee ehould so far Iforgerfc its functions" as to indulge in eaich nxk-mcntade.
