PATRIOTIC APPEAL
EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS. BIG REHABILITATION TASK. (Issued by the Masterton Executive of the'l942 Patriotic Appeal.) In addition to the work done for the prisoners of war the following work comes directly within the province of the National Patriotic Fund Council which is now appealing for funds: Social clubs and rooms, recreational huts, sporting requisites, entertainment, supplementing regimental funds, knitted articles of many types, comforts on troopships and hospital ships, and rehabilitation. Gne of the most important and farreaching of these is habilitation. Work in this direction is in full swing and has been in operation for some eighteen months. This part of the job. is, of course, becoming bigger with every draft of invalided men and will continue with increasing magnitude as the war progresses. The money is urgently needed.

The controlling authorities are the mayors of the various cities and towns and their control is absolute.
