GREATLY NEEDED
WORKS AT GREVTOWN HOSPITAL MR J. F. THOMPSON’S PLEA FOR URGENCY. DIFFICULTY IN OBTAINING LABOUR. A resolution providing for the cost of the whole of proposed works at Greytown Hospital, including a new nurses’ home, being raised by loan and subsidy was passed at today’s meeting of the Wairarapa Hospital Board. Mr J. F. Thompson appealed to board members to have the matter given urgency. He said the hospital staff at Greytown was working under difficulties. The matter was one for the district and the method of raising the money was quite correct. He asked board members who were not on the spot and did not see the urgent need for improvements at Greytown to support him and other members in the Lower Valley who knew of the situation. The Managing-Secretary, Mr Norman Lee, said’ it was impossible to get labour for work. Provision had been made on the last estimates for repair jobs which were still not carried out. Mr H. H. Mawley, chairman, agreed that the work at Greytown was necessary and important.
