“State Of Chaos” With Accommodation
On Saturday, Lt E. R. Hunt, Whakatane, appealed to the Dominion conference of the Legion of Frontiersmen for better organisation as regards accommodation requirements in the future. He said that late bookings and ' cancellations without notice had created a chaotic state of affairs.
People who had offered to take men into their homes had sat up waiting for them with hot dinners, and they hadn’t shown up. Others had double-booked at hotels. He urged all units to be 99 per cent sure delegates were going before they sent in names for accommodation.
Others agreed, and it was resolved that Headquarters would issue a general instruction on the subject before next conference, which is to be at Auckland. 1
