To the Editor of the "Nontn-Cuia Darcy News"
Sin—I venture to take this opportunity to voice my humble endorsement of the views expressed by Mr Ozorio in his letter published in your columns to-day.
The Consul, Dr. J. M. Alves, has done yeoman service for all Rortuguese subjects during the present and has spared no efforts in alleviating the hardships of the poor and needy, entirely on his own initiative in many cases.
T sincerely hope, as do all thoughtful subj that the Homie Government will accord Mr. Alves due recognition for his invaluable services, A Portucurse Vouunreen.
