MORE FOR THE FUND INTEREST OF CHINESE OTHER NATIONAL LISTS When, a few weeks ago, certain of the Chinese merchants in the city were asked whether thoy wished to contribute towards the National Art Gallery and Dominion Muecum Fund, thoy intimated that not only would they bo pleased to do so, but would recommend the appeal to others of their countrymen in Wellington. At that tho committee in charge of the campaign let the matter rest, and yesterday roceived cheques and cash contributions totalling £228 10s. The Mayor, Mr. G. A. j Troup, has asked "The Post" to. express* his and the committee's appreciation and thanks to the members of the various Chinese associations for the ready manner in which they took up the spirit of tho appeal. "The number of Chinese.in Wellington is not great, about 600," said Mr. Troup, "so that the proportion of those who came forward is pleasingly high. The Chinese havo on many occasions shown a very lino city spirit, and we are particularly pleased with their assistance in connectioii with the Art Gallery and Museum .Fund Appeal, Not only this, but they havo offered to co-operate with the. Carnival Committee by'participation jn the League of Nations Pageant and in other spectacular features," "National lists" are also being compiled by the Danish, Syrian, Greek, and Italian societies or organisations.
