PLANNING NECESSARY
EFFORTS BY RED CROSS NO HURRY AT PRESENT "We know, and appreciate, that people want to help us; but our efforts must be directed in the most useful manner, so for the present I would say, ‘Wait’,” said Dr. W. R. Fea, president of the Waikato centre of the Red Cross Society, in an address in Hamilton today. “There ig no hurry. We and the Government do not know whether troops will be sent overseas.” Dr. Fea said the society aimed ai efficient organisation and economical direction of the work which it had to do, and it was the intention of the Waikato centre to render a full account of what had been done when hostilities ceased. He suggested that even if those trained in first-aid work were not required to make practical application, under wartime conditions, of what they had learned, the training which they received would always be useful.
