An Impudent Theft. While visiting a parishioner in Cornwall Street yesterday a Masterton clergyman was the victiom of an impudent theft. His bicycle, which had new tires and tubes on it, was removed from the footpath and was later left opposite the Central school. The new tires and tubes had been replaced with old and perished ones. Release of Manpower.
The placement officer or manpower officer should make arrangements so that women and girls, or married men with children, who are not already in essential industries, could be directed to undertake necessary work and release young men for camp, said Mr Orr-Walker, S.M., chairman, at the Armed Forces Appeal Board in Auckland yesterday.
