APPEALS AGAINST SERVICE

DECISIONS OF NO. I BOARD "I am very disappointed in the grade 2 and 3 men Who have been manpowered to me,” said Mr G. O. Templeton, representing the firm of Flutes, Ltd-, bacon curers, when supporting the appeals for two of the firm’s employees in the No, 1 Armed Forces Appeal Board yesterday. “It doesn’t seem as if the work in our factory is suitable for them,” he said.
