FARRIER'S PROBLEM
ITALIAN BY BIRTH
The difficulties of a British ject of Italian birth in obtaining farm labour were presented as the grounds of appeals by D : . Russo, of Roto-o_'rangi,'( for Domenico Russo and Alberto Ronald Russo.
"If one of the reservists is taken to camp, I am afraid that a" Grade II man I would, get to replace him would be difficult to keep once he found out my Italian nationality," •said Ru.sso. He. had been treated as a British subject for a * long time and Avas proud, of the fact. If he were given a Grade II man to rc« place a son, the man might take exception to his Italian birth and he did not wish to have any sui'h trouble. One Reservist for Camp e appreciate your difficulty. Mr liUsso, but for every single man who stays; at home, a married m:m with children has to uo and figh! for him," said Mr Hnyward. '"One sou will have, to go into the force? and we can't just licip it," It was decided to dismiss the appeal for Domenieo Russo, subject to him not being mobilised before July 1, and to adjourn the appeal for Alberto Russo sine die.
