GIFT CIGARETTES
NEW ZEALAND FORCES CLUB.. A further reference to alleged sales of gift cigarettes in the New Zealand Forces Club, Cairo, is made by Lieu-tenant-Colonel F. Waite, overseas commissioner for the National Patriotic Fund Board, in his latest report. “We have investigated some alleged sales,” he says, “and never yet have we been able to get any evidence that the cigarettes in question were purchased over a counter at the club.” “The board and all patriotic workers in New Zealand,” he adds, “must realise that we are as keen as anyone in New Zealand to get all the facts and stop the illegal sale of gift cigarettes. It is significant that at the three meetings we have held of the advisory committee of the New Zealand Forces Club, on which are two representatives of each unit of the N.Z.E.F., this question has never been raised.”
